Sam's (Mimi and Pop Pop's) Fishing Tale

This is written by Mimi - telling me about Sam's fishing experience!

Sam & Pop-Pop went to buy worms. Sam told the lady he was going to catch Nemo and Domino. He picked out a yellow and red bobber to go on his rod.

Down to the dock! Sam handed everything to Pop-Pop and Mimi to carry. It was "too heavy."

Pop-Pop and Sam put the bobbers on and Pop-Pop put the worm on. Sam slapped the rod up and down in the water. Pop kept telling him to "keep the rod out of the water!" Sam did--for about 30 seconds, then flailed the rod again.

Sam swished the fish net in the water.

Sam hooked Pop.

Mimi caught a small bream. Sam thought it was Nemo, but not big enough! Pop let him touch the fish, but Sam didn't want to hold him. "You do it, Pop-Pop!" Pop let it go and Sam watched it swim away.

Sam hooked the boat.

Sam hooked Rocky.

Sam swished the fish net in the water.

Sam slapped the rod in the water.

Sam dumped the worms out.

Sam mopped the dock with the fish net.

Mimi caught a big catfish. Sam said it looked like Domino, but it fell off the line before she could land it.

Sam threw the top to the worms in the lake. Pop retrieved it.

Pop went to the house and got some bread to replace the worms. Pop put globs of bread on the two rods. Sam ate the rest so we had no more to bait the hooks.

Sam slapped the rod up and down on the other side of the dock.

Sam hooked Mimi.

Sam slapped the rod up and down. Sam reeled in the bobber so hard, it fell off. Sam slapped the rod.

Sam played in the dirt from the worm box.

Sam slapped the rod in the water.

Sam swished the net in the water.

We gave up and went to ride in the boat! Sam was a lot of help to Pop-Pop uncovering the boat. He stood in the middle of the cover and laughed! He liked riding in the front. Said he was "flying in the boat."

Pictures to come later!!!
