Today I went fishing with my friends. We saw a whale so close in we were amazed. We caught about twenty fish. My friend caught a fish for the first time ever. And for the first time I used shrimp and lug worms for bait. I was casting all by myself and I caught a fish by myself. My dad thought it was the waves messing with me but I knew it was a fish.

The last time I was at that beach a life guard asked me if I'd seen any whales in close. Evidently, folks had been reporting seeing them near shore and were concerned that they might beach themselves.

It looked to us like that whale might have been feeding. There was a rip right there which we had been fishing and after the whale left, a pod of dolphins moved in to that spot and stayed for a while too.

I am very proud of City Girl. She has become a very good fisherwoman and a helpful teacher to her friends as well!

Way to go, kiddo!

City Girl, you did a real nice job there on that perch.


Where are the pics of your Daddy's fish?

Did your father the farmer drive you to the beach on his John Deere tractor?

I was just kidding about your Daddy being a farmer. I think he has a job feeding the surf perch.

Thanks for the report and please keep posting them. They are great!!!

Another great report from CityGirl!

I have fished that area many times and have NEVER seen a whale as close up as you did City Girl!
That is great!

It's a fun time for you and your friends to be fishing the beach in that area, because the whales are migrating right now!

Congratulations on catching a fish by yourself! Soon your dad will be able to do it too! :ROFL:J/K!

So you and your friends caught 20 fish? Thats a great day! You saw a whale too, THATS COOL!

I wonder if Hanna Montana has ever seen a whale that close?

Thanks for the report CityGirl, keep them coming!

Nice Report City Girl!!!!!

Way to go on getting you friends on their first fish.

Looks like you 3 had a great time out in the surf with your personnel photographer in dad.

It must have been awesome to catch all the little perch's. A 20 fish day? I am jealous!!!!!1

To go with it to have a whale and the dolphins do close, and to play in the sand looked like a great day at the beach with friends!!!!!!

Nice job Dad!!!!!!
