The first weekend in June is free fishing day in Iowa. The Conservation District hosts a fishing derby for kids. We were game for a little friendly fishing competition and decided to go until 5AM when we woke up to severe thunderstorms. We waited them out until 6Am and decided to go in the rain anyway. We got to the lake and they decided to call off the derby because of lightening. We wanted to fish anyway so we fished in the rain for several hours and then things cleared off. It was worth the soggy investment because Andrew caught his very first fish. No joke he reeled it in all by himself. It was the most unruly reeling I've ever seen but he did it. Every time I tried to help he would scream and say, "No, no, no!" Look at that HUGE sunfish. Way to go little man.
