St George - fishing

Since we weren't able to catch any fish at Sand Hollow we went to a little community fishing pond in St George the next day. We went there just to check it out to see if we wanted to go there the next day, but decided we would try it out while we were there.

First the kids fed the ducks. They thought that was pretty fun.

The fish the girls caught. They caught 4 fish pretty fast.

This cracked me and the kids up when the ducks would do head stands in the water.


Caden didn't care to fish- he dug his buckets out of the boat and played in the wood chips most of the time.



Briggs just liked to eat the wood chips, although he would have liked to go into the water.



Aspen is saying EEWWWWWW... this is probably one of the first times shes ever held a fish. She wouldn't when she was younger but I think a little of her older sister is wearing on her. Its a good thing she caught a fish fast because she was feeding the ducks and got a little close to the edge of the water and the slippery rock and fell in. Well, just kind of slid on a rock into the water and got all wet and she wasn't very happy but the fish got her attention off her soaking wet clothes. :)


The fish Kaylee caught


Kaylee gutting the fish all by herself- its pretty handy to have her around when your fishing.


Aspens very first time gutting a fish. She did really good, even making sure and scraping all the insides out.

Great Job Aspen!!

  1. Aspen's come a long way from not touching a fish to gutting it all in one day. Pretty amazing.
