Saturday was the Opening Day for trout season in Connecticut.
My wife had a cold, so I took my two daughters to the local carnival.
To make a long story short, the only fish that I saw that day were the two goldfish that my girls won in a ping pong ball toss.
That said, I wouldn’t have done it any other way. My youngest went on her first Ferris Wheel, and both took their first ride on the sky swings. Most of the time they were smiling ear to ear. Winning the goldfish was just icing on the cake. We now have two new members of our family, Goldie and Hook. One day my daughters will forgive me for referring to them as bait.
As far as the fishing, there’s always next year (or tomorrow). Hope you’re catching something a bit larger. Enjoy!
