New catching pole

Rudy got a new fishing pole for his birthday, but he calls it his "catching pole." We are all impressed with his optimism - but it seems to work! He caught a fish on his first cast when he tried it out last weekend!

Here he is, all ready to go with his pole and his new camelbak backpack:

Look at the size of that smile!

Another one! Like any good fisherman, he will tell you that the fish he caught were "THIS big" - holding his hands about as far apart as he can!
