Fishing at Groton

A few days ago, we had a bit of a family  reunion at Groton State Park. Anyway, my dad and I brought our fishing gear with us, thinking that it might be nice to have grilled trout. (We camped on Kettle Pond). So, when we went out fishing the day we got there it was too bad that we went out fishing at about 4:00 in the afternoon. (Fish only feed at sunrise and sunset). So, the second, (and last) night we were there, we went out fishing after s'mores, at about 8:00 at night. We didn't only get to go fishing, but we also got to see a beautiful sunset. (My dad said it was more being on the still lake than fishing). That time we went out, my dad caught a five-inch perch with a three-inch lure. Then, the next, (and last) morning we were there, we got up at about 6:30 in the morning and went fishing. That time I caught a seven-inch Perch with a three-inch lure and my dad caught a four-inch Perch with a three-inch lure. We didn't notice that we should have kept the seven-inch Perch for a fried snack until we got back and had let it go. Well we were out in the morning, we also saw 3 loons, and one time, my dad casted, and while he was reeling in to cast again, a loon came up for air in between him and his lure about 20 feet away. That was awesome.
