Jayce caught his first fish...a trout! He had the choice of either throwing it back in, or taking it home. Since he wanted to take it home, it was put in a freezer until we were ready to head home. I was a little worried Jayce would see the fish as his friend, and be a little shocked when he realized his friend had been frozen. Jayce was ok carrying his frozen friend to the car in a plastic shopping bag. Jayce made it clear to us he planned to take it home, skin it, and eat it. I was thinking, "How barbaric for a 5 year old!" I like to eat fish, but I really don't want to look into the eyes of any animal before I eat it. I've decided I will continue to be a "gatherer" and leave the hunting up to someone else who can handle it....like Jayce. I think fishing is just in his blood.
