* Fishing Is Just Fun

Fishing is a boys thing,
but girls like it too.
Putting the worms all
wiggling on those hooks.
Then you cast your line out
in to the lake, then sit back and wait.

For that special pull, tug, then you know
right away to pull hard and their he is.
fighting with all his might to see who 'wins' 
the fish or me.
Usually I win, but this time the fish won and 
I don't care cause I was just having fun.

Fishing is a special day out. Eating the fresh catch is great so sorry that you did not get to enjoy the catch. Keep writing. Sara

You're so right! Even when the fish gets away, the thrill of the struggle makes fishing my favorite sport. (Love seafood, too.) Great observation on fishing! Love, Carolyn
