We went out to a friends camp ground the other day for a couple of hours and Garrett was intently watching the other boys while they were fishing (I don't know if he really thought it was interesting, or if he was tired of playing with the girls!). Anyway, our friend, Amber got her daughter's fishing pole and taught him how to fish. He had a great time. So this is Garrett's first fish. And yes, that is a Barbie fishing pole, they have three girls, what do you expect? He didn't quite get the casting part of it, but jerked the line a lot, I think that's why he caught a fish every time he threw the line out. Amber and I weren't too thrilled about having to touch the fish to get them off the hook, but she handled it like a pro. This mom won't be fishing without a dad to do the dirty work!

That kid is good at everything he does...you should get him into a sport that pays, like golf or something.
hey is this at dutch treat campground in zeeland? We go there all the time!
Way to go Garret!
He is too cute!! J is right is is good at everything he does!
I think that fish is bigger than any fish Josh has ever caught. I don't think Josh would take the fish off the hook if he were there either. That is an awesome pic! He is now a true outdoorsman. Go Garrett!!
Yes, Kristina, that is Dutch treat - funny name, nice place!
