Tuesday, July 10th was my dad's birthday and he happened to be on vacation this week. The boys and i had planned on going to Denison to see a movie with one of their cousins and then off to the Denison Dam to see the water going over the spill way! Papaw got to go along.....he suggested that we go fishin' too!
So after our very boring movie, which my sister slept through, we headed off to our little picnic and to wait for Papaw to go see the water and fish. We started out fishing. Jonny caught the first 3 fish. His brother was very miffed. He told Papaw, "I am fishing where Jonny is!" So Ryan changed spots and still did not catch a fish. Finally he ended up with 2 catches for the day. My poor niece she was just not getting anything on the hook....her bait wouldn't stay on either. Those pesky little blue gill. Now I took Ryan's pole for some reason, and I caught the biggest blue gill which happened to have some yellow. Papaw said that he could not record it in the fishin' book becau
se he did not see my whale of a tail!
We ended our day looking at the water taking a small plunge over t
he spillway and then off to see the flood gates dumping water. I told Ryan it looked like a very small Niagara Falls. It freaked him out a little to be so close to the water.
I will post some pictures once they are downloaded.
