One of the most relaxing campouts I believe we have is the fishing campout. Weather or not the boys or even adults catch anything, they still have a good time. This last weekend the Troop went to Lake Livingston SP. We arrived Friday evening, and woke up Saturday morning with all the boys ready to fish. They were none too happy when we told them to eat breakfast first, but throughout the day they all fished and had a great time. Sunday morning we did have one emergency with a hook in the arm. What fun I had with the help of a couple of other leaders removing it. The scout on the other hand was not real happy when I told him that I would have to make another hole in his arm. Long story short.
* One paniced 11 old boy
*Mike with wire cutters to cut hook
* myself calming scout long enough to push hook through and remove
* The look on his face as I show him the hook I just removed after he yells at me to stop………..priceless
For every one else, Its just fishing. for Boy Scouts its always an adventure
