Last Fishing Tournament...

The boys just finished up fall fishing a few weeks ago at Lake Lewisville. They were so excited and so ready to end the year with a big catch! However, I'm sad to say, that the only thing they caught was a stick... literally, Remi reeled in a stick. So, the only pictures I have are of the day before, them getting ready. 

Honestly, they are pretty downtrodden about how these 3 tournaments went and I was so hoping they could get at least one catch. Come spring, they will have two more tournaments where they could potentially qualify for regionals. But honestly, at this point, I just want them to catch something! 

If I've learned anything, it's that this is way harder than it looks! 

But I still say, spending the day out on the water with your dad and best friend, has to count for something! 

Lake Texoma Fishing Tournament

While I was in Seaside, Remi had his second fishing tournament! 

This time, they got to fish Lake Texoma, which they were all a little more familiar with. I think they all had high hopes and were just a little disappointed to end their day with zero keepers. But hey, a day out on the lake with your dad and best friend can't be that bad, right? They will have one more tournament to finish out their fall fishing season and hopefully reel in some keepers!

Fishing Tournament, Lake Ray Roberts...

The last Saturday in September, Remi had his very first high school fishing tournament! He and one of his very best friends are a team and Micah is their captain. He was out of pocket this first tournament, so they had a fill-in captain for the day. 

I didn't really know that catching a 'keeper' bass was hard, but apparently it is, because out of all the teams from our school, only one was caught. I know Remi and Leyton would have loved getting to come home with a keeper catch, but they still had so much fun! There are a total of 3 freshman teams (along with other upperclassmen teams) and so they are also getting to do this with some good buddies and two really sweet girls!

I don't know much about bass fishing, but I think this is going to be one of Remi's favorite parts of high school!
