We went to Warrnambool, more than 3 hours drive from our place, to take part in a Fishing Event sponsored by the Victorian Government. Warrnambool is a coastal resort and Victoria's fifth largest city. It is at the western end of the Great Ocean Rd. The fishing event was in Hopkins River.
Here, the kids are having a tutorial on how to throw a fishing line.
Among us, Luke was the first one who caught a fish. See him here, holding his catch but had to throw it back in. He was rewarded a souvenir for being one of the early catchers.
Jake catching his very first fish! However, they had to throw it back in the water as it was undersized. It was our first attempt at fishing (except Orly) and we had so much fun that we plan to do this quite often. Hopefully, we can catch some fishes for dinner in the future.
