Kaden caught his first fish !!!

Jeff, Kaden and I decided to go fishing while we were at Tamarack. They had a small fly fishing pond that was actually on the golf course. So we decided that Kaden and Daddy would have a great time and I was basically along for the photo ops. Jeff had gotten Kaden a fishing pole before we left and he of course was showing Kaden how to use it the night before. He of course had his fly rod out and was practicing as well. He has not fished since we lived in Michigan, which is going on four years. We had to trek a little ways through the brush to get to the pond, but it was worth it. Except for the fact that Kaden did not like his regular little cheap rod, (spinner fishing) he wanted to use Daddy's fly rod. So, Jeff got it ready and with his first cast they had a fish, only to loose it. Second cast, what do ya know, a fish. Kaden was so excited to catch a fish for the first time. He even reeled it in with Jeff's help. He was a little confused as to why we had to but it back. He kept telling me that we have to "CHOP" his head off and eat him !! It was so much fun to be able to see Jeff and Kaden together. I don't know who was more excited, Kaden or Jeff. Not too bad for not fishing in 4 years. However, I don't think he got another fish the rest of the time.

Here are some great photos of Jeff and Kaden fishing together !! I am glad that Jeff will be able to share all of these wonderful "ADVENTURES" (as Kaden would say), together with both of the boys. Maybe they will let mom tag a long every once in a while !!

That's so cute that he even has a mini fishing vest to match his mini fishing pole! Too cute. Let's hear it for father/son bonding!
