My Fishing Buddy

For our 7th Anniversary last weekend the Wheeler family went to the lake. While we were there I had the chance to take Eliana fishing again. This past Summer was her first time ever. On this trip it was pretty windy and not quite spring fishing time, but we had a blast and it was one more step towards getting her to LOVE fishing with Dadda!
Notice the leash I've got tied to her Dora rod...that's a key piece of equipment.
Just look at that intensity!


Here she's getting more hot dog to feed the fish!
The second day was cooler - so we put her puffy coat OVER her life jacket. Let's just say she was "bundled". She didn't care what she had to wear - she just wanted to keep fishing!

Here she's really getting after it!

We ended up not catching anything - but as I always tell Lindsey:
"Fishing isn't about catching fish, it's about being OUT there." I'm so proud of my girl and I love fishing with her!

I love you my fishing buddy,
-Chris / Dadda
