Hanging out at the lake intrigued Corbin's interest in fishing. So with worms and snacks in hand, we headed down to the lake for a fishing lesson from Grumpa. I was very impressed with how patient Corbin was waiting for the fish to bite. And bite they did! He caught 2 fish in a matter of about 30 minutes. 1 Bass, and 1 trout (we think). That night, Daddy was on deck to clean and grill the fish. At that point, Corbin said he wanted his fish to keep swimming. Oops.....
The next evening, he wanted to fish again. Off to the dock they went. This time, no fish after about an hour. As I was prepping myself to talk through Corbin's disappointment since at this point he though fishing was easy, he simply looked at me and said, "Mommy, the fish are just busy doing the dishes to swim to my worm."

On the way home, Corbin said that fishing with Grumpa was his favorite part of the whole trip. I'm so glad he has this memory!
