They fought over who would *get* to use the Barbie Fishing Pole that Ellea got several years ago. There was also a Spider Man fishing pole that was popular. My favorite line of the day was when Spider Man caught a fish and, Stephanie, who was using Barbie says, "Well, anything Spider Man can do, Barbie can do better!" Too true. Us girls gotta stick together, you know! And Barbie did have a stellar record that day!
In an attempt to catch more fish, the girls started throwing out fish food (little cat food-looking pellets that smell rather fishy) and dragging their lures close to the food floating in the water. It was amazing how well that technique worked. It wasn't very sportsman-like, but it was fun!
And then, Ellea finally succeeded in catching a fish. Granted, she caught it by the tail, but you take what you can get. Glenn said it was the biggest fish caught all day!!! It was easy to unhook him and throw him back in. We might be on to something here. . . . .

I've done a lot of fishing in my day and "tail catching" is a new twist ... Nice going!
