Family Vacation...Fishing..

Last week we went on our family vacation to a house on a lake. It was gorgeous all week long hot and sunny everyday but this one day the fishing pictures are from. The boys fished their little hearts out just from the dock but they had a blast. They'd be up early every morning and sit out until dark fishing. Over the next few days I'll be posting some pictures of our vacation and things we did. Today's pic's are of fishing.

Here is Lucas and Kaleb on the dock fishing.
Here is Kaleb with his prize fish he caught the biggest one of the week. A Large mouth Bass that was around 17 inches long not to shabby for dock fishing. He was so proud of it I never thought they'd catch anything so large from the dock. Ben's brother David had to help him carry it up and then our uncle cut it up. He was begging to be able to keep it we did and had a fine lunch the next day. Poor uncle Don cut his thumb badly while cutting the fish and ended up getting 6 stitches on the way home. Thanx again uncle Don for cutting that up!
Here's a close up of the Large Mouth Bass. Pretty big eh?
And here is the yummy lunch of bass we had it was quite tasty. I don't like fish but this bass was awesome. It fed all three boys and myself for lunch.
Roman was so happy when he finally caught a fish. This was the first one he caught can you tell how excited he was. Again, assistance from uncle Don was required can you tell who the expert fisherman in our family is?
One of Lucas' fish he had to bring it into the house to show me so I could take a picture. I think we have three up and coming fisherman in the family.
