Howdy all, every year the Apache Indian Tribe holds a fishing derby for a day at Bog Tank. They give all the kids 14 and under a day pass to fish on the reservation and give out tons of prizes. My dad and I took Mylea and the Kim Madrid children. I was told to take a camera and keep everyone up to date on what was happening so I used Twitter. Here’s the day in a twitter stream as well as some pics that I took. Remember it is twitter so the newest if first. (Read it from the bottom up for a chronological order of event)
- All done for this year. Hopefully next time won’t be near as windy
- Too bad it was already closed.. No tank fishing this time.
- Back to catch fish from a tank for Wacey and Shayman.. Good ‘ol hot dogs for lunch.
- Still windy. Sad because this could have been even that much more fun.
- Poles are in.. Waiting for hotdogs now. 3 fish and tons of crawdads. Pretty sure everyone had a blast.
- Mylea just caught a crawdad with her fish.
- Shaymon is catching crawdads with his little pole. Missed the photo though. Is that a fish story then?
- Sigrid caught one!! We it off the hook and now Shaymon wants one.
- Mylea and dad went to measure Mylea’s catch.. Stay tuned for prizes.
- So many people here! No wonder we aren’t getting any bites.
- Sigrid just brought a crawdad in. Almost a fish. Worms seems to be the keeper at bog tank today.
- Snack time! (For us, not the fish)
- Mylea just caught number two.. She must have the spot.
- As soon as I left the boys they both thought they caught fishes and reeled in.. Maybe next time, hehe.
- Mylea caught fish number one with a worm.. I think Luna wanted to eat it.
- Is this a glimpse of the future? If so then patience is a virtue that I still have yet to acquire.. Not with fishing, but with the kiddies.
- Been fishing for 15 minutes and we are already on potty break number two.
- At Bog Tank for a kids fishing tourney. Should be fun, but the wind needs to chill out.
Hope you all enjoyed that as much as we did fishing today. Here’s the photos..
