I went to Ed Levin County Park for Family Fishing Day. The weather was cloudy, and not really hot. I got to the park yesterday at 8:45am and checked in first.

I had a training session with a coach. He helped me put on hooks and baits.

He also taught me to swing the rod forward smoothly. It was hard to swing out.

I also learned to adjust the strings.

At 9:30am I started fishing. I used fishing poles and baits. I stood there for a long time but I didn’t catch any fish. I felt very sad.


At 10:30am I had Nature Education. I learned that we should not dump the trash anywhere because it pollutes our favorite fishing area.

At 11:00am we had BBQ Lunch. I made my hamburger with lettuce, tomatoes and ketchup. I also had BBQ chips. After eating I felt very happy.

In this event I also met my friends. I enjoyed learning how to fish.

haha I know that feeling of the rod being hard to swing right. Took me forever to get the hang of it when I first started.
The cloudy weather actually sounds perfect for fishing though, way better than baking in the sun all day.
