We decided to try Tristan and Sean fishing. Tristan took to it very well... Sean, well, might of still been a little young. Soon after getting started, he lost patients and through his (and by "his" I mean "Tristan's" pole) in the lake! Grandpa and Dad were pleasantly surprised to learn that unlike most poles, this one floated. Whew! This is an excellent idea for any fishing pole for kids. I take that back... it is a necessary requirement of any fishing pole for kids.
Sean battle some early boredom as we didn't catch fish right away... but luckily it didn't last - we started getting some fish! Indeed, we caught nearly a stringer full, and mostly walleye. Once the fish started coming, Sean got excited. Admittedly, he did not do much fishing on his own, but directed us to stay until "we caught ALL the fish!"

As usual, we filleted the fish before leaving the lake, but not before getting a visitor. Usually gulls and eagles take the fish remains, but this giant snapper didn't want to give them the chance!
Later, Dana came over to see a little more of Robbie. I think Robbie remembered his baptism and was nice to say thanks!
