Fishing in Rondeau

Now that the provincial parks are open for walking, hiking, biking, etc., we decided to go fishing on both Tuesday and Thursday. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures on Tuesday, so you'll just see the ones from Thursday. The total number of fish caught was 16: Joel caught 6, Ellia 3, Cassia 4, Moriah 2 and myself 1. They ranged from good-sized largemouth bass all the way down to little guppies. I retired from fishing to take pictures early on, but the rest went on to catch some big ones.
Cassia fishing. She caught the first fish and then we all moved to her spot. She moved to the other side and then caught another fish, and so we all moved over there. She moved back to where she was and caught another, so we gave up.:)

Joel & Ellia
It was really shallow there and I think that we all got caught on the rocks at least once. Joel ended up getting stuck on a branch and so Cassia had to go break it since she was the only one in sandals. She came out with cold feet and a leech.

The best fishing is when you can just sit down!

This was after I stopped fishing.

Joel's first big fish. He looks funny because the sun was in his face. The fish was a good size, about 8 or 9 inches long.

Partial silhouette fishing.

Sunset just before we left. I did use a filter for this one to make the colours brighter.
The nice weather has been wonderful! So glad that it is the end of May and hopefully it will stay nice.
