I would like to thank my family for letting me know all about "lake life".

If You Give a Kid a Bobber…

 

If you give a kid a bobber, he will want to go fishing. 

 

When he goes to get the worms out of the fridge, he will see the lunchmeat and decide he needs a sandwich first. 

 

After he eats his sandwich, he decides to have some chips. 

 

As he grabs the chips out of the cupboard he catches a glimpse of the lake and remembers about the fishing. He goes to find his pole. 

 

As he grabs his pole he notices it needs a better hook. 

 

He goes to the tackle box to see what he can find and gets distracted by all the lures. 

 

After looking at the lures for 20 minutes he finally chooses the perfect hook to put on his pole. 

 

On the way down to the dock, he sees a cool rock on the beach. He decides to grab it for his collection.

 

As he is grabbing the rock, he sees a perfect flat rock for skipping. 

 

He throws the rock out into the lake and it skips 5 times. 

 

As he watches the skips in the distance, he sees a fish jump. 

 

The fish jumping reminds him of fishing, so he grabs his pole with the bobber and casts it out. 

 

Hopefully, he catches a big one!
