Fishing

Today we went fishing to the backwater pond again, although this time there was very little fish biting. Possibly it was because we fished in the early afternoon, but I don't know. Anyway here is our story. At 3:45pm we went fishing to a backwater pond. Soon there was a lily pad moving across the pond as if it was doing it by itself. We didn't see anything pushing it so I was a little spooked but curious on what was causing it to do that. About 20 minutes later it happened again but that time I noticed a brown thing pushing it. Few, that's a relief! Ahh, my mom just spoke and I didn't know she was there. Man, bad day for me because I'm getting scared and startled a lot. Anyway back to the story. Lily pads had moved for the second time but that time we knew a otter, beaver or muskrat did it. Then all of a sudden a fish jumped leaving ripples in the water. So, I tried to cast there but it didn't turn out so well. Neither did it when my mom casted there. Oh well, after that my mom caught a sunfish and small bass. Of course we let them go but I wanted to keep the sunfish but my mom says we can't eat sunfish...I know you can its just my mom won't believe me...isn't that right mom? Ha ha. Oops, my mom me type that. Ahh, stop tickling me mom! Sorry, but I still ain't deleting that sentence. You know what why don't you tell your side of the fishing story for once. No? OK. Anyway I had a good time which would have been better without the mosquitos though. Thanks anyway mom! Goodbye, Birdman.
