" K has seen my fishing poles, and wanted to go fishing. Last month, I decided to give it a try. We cut a tree limb and tied some line to it. Then we added a bobber and the smallest hook I could find. While mommy was at school, K and I went to a pond here in town. I put a small piece of bread on the hook, and helped her swing it out to the water. It didn't take long and she was getting some nibbles, then the bobber went under, and I told her to pull in the fish. She started to pull it, and it pulled back. She was surprised, and it looked like she might let go so I went to help. It was then that I realized, this was no three inch sunfish like I had expected. I helped her with it, and she soon understood what to do, so I let go and let her finish the job. She dragged a catfish out of the water. We took some pictures, and she wanted to touch it, so I let her. Then we put the fish back in the pond. I told her it was a "catfish".
After catching a small sunfish, harassment by some ducks, and K eating all the bread, we went home. Later that day, K told (her mommy) she had caught "a catfish and a dogfish".
