How to go Fishing

My four-year-old son, Eric, and I have been doing a lot of fishing this summer. On one recent fishing trip, he had this to say about how fishing is done:

1. You get some red wigglers.
2. You pick out good-looking red wiggler.
3. You put it on a hook.
4. You throw it WAY out there.
5. You catch the fish.
6. You give the fish a name.
7. You throw it back. If you don't throw it back, it goes "uh-uh-uh" and dies.

Pretty much sums it up, don't you think? Of course, those of you who know me well, know that I name each and every fish I catch. Eric's fish-naming proclivity is proof that the proverbial apple does not fall far from the equally proverbial tree.
