Fishing on the Bay

 Went fishing with Granddad and the Grays. Plenty of fish action. Highlights include:

• Bradley's new rod caught its first fish ... a skate/ray. Mr. Geoff battled it for 20 minutes to reel it in, and thereby locked up fisherman of the day.
• Mr. Geoff also won the $1 challenge for catching the first spot fish.
• Julia quickly caught 3 fish, then decided to hang with Katelyn on the front of the boat.
• RJ caught a lot of perch, he was super excited from 7pm the night before through the drive home
• Katelyn, RJ, and Brandley jumped in the water ... despite the sea nettles (stinging jellyfish)
• A school of jumping fish and a flock of seagulls engulfed us
• The Woodwind II (Wedding Crashers Boat) passed 20 yards to our port side

Ms. Melissa proudly displays a fish.

Mr. Geoff fights the big one. RJ shows how big! Turns out it was a stupid skate.

Mr. Geoff unhooks a fish that Bradley caught.

The Woodwind II goes right past us

The girls hang out on the front of the boat. The front was a fishing-free and RJ-Bradley-free zone for much of the time.
