Gone Fishin

Quinne has been very interested in exploring the world famous trout fishing to be had here in New Zealand. Unfortunately she doesn’t have her Nana and PopPop to show her the way, and her parents aren’t experts when it comes to fishing. In fact, Amy doesn’t even eat fish, let alone know how to lure them from the waters.

In spite of this, Quinne took it upon herself to gear up and take to the waters. She took the hook from the new socks Nana and PopPop sent, some yarn from Amy’s knitting supplies, a stick from the ground, and here’s what she came up with…


I’ll let you know if she catches anything. Amy insists it should be catch and release, but I’m not sure she has that much to worry about.

Quinne, I love your fishing rod. It is very inventive and clever of you! Good luck with your fishing. lots of love to you and your brother, Nanoo

for what it matters, leroy likes to fish without a hook on the end of the pole. he just likes to toss the line out and reel it in over and over again. he's much happier not catching anything and doesn't seem to mind or know that perhaps catching something would be the point...

Jen, that's great. The whole thing about fishing is getting out there anyway. You can still talk about the huge one that got away.
Thanks Nanoo!
Love,
O
