The FHF

An afternoon at Griffey Lake. Sebastian takes the camera and captures a parking lot not jammed with cars for a change.

We had started fishing at the other end but had nary a bite. So we go back to the dock. I get a bite first and Sebastian reels it in for me. It's good to catch a fish again.

Sebastian wields his rod in a running series of duels with some very tricky bluegills.

He gets frustrated and puts his rod down and picks up the camera. When one of those fish comes out from under the dock and hooks itself he keeps the camera while I reel it in.

That worked so well we do it again. Nice shooting, Sebastian.

We catch a few more and then decide to take a hike.

I thought he might want to head home after that--I was tired: he has a knack for finding the steepest trails--but he's still fresh and wants to fish some more. OK by me. We cross the road and try the other side of the lake. We see a big water snake curl off the rocks and pour himself into the water. That, if you don't count another little bluegill, is our big excitement here.

So it's back to the docks. We catch a few more fish. He finally hooks one himself.

Then he takes over the photographer role again and comes up with a couple of great shots.

Well done, Sebastian. We'll be doing the FHF (Fish-Hike-Fish) again real soon.
