#5

Okay, randomly number five was to go fishing. However, we haven't managed to find a cool enough place to go fishing yet, plus, we kinda don't really know whether you're aloud to just casually start fishing in places. So we did the next best thing, we went crabbing! 

This was such a cool afternoon, we went to the Marine Lake in West Kirby, and James bought a crabbing line and a bucket, and that was that, we began the adventure.

For bait, we used the little muscle things we found on the waters edge. So we literally pulled them out of the water, and tried to break them open. I'm not gonna lie, this was pretty difficult, and it was decided that the best way to do it, was to stand on them, and then pull the insides out. Sounds a bit disgusting, and the reality is, it kinda was, but it was fun!


This be the bait. 

So once we'd caught our bait, it was time to attach it to the line, and wait, patiently wait for the crabs to fall into our trap. We had some success, and well, then we didn't. There were a few sneaky crabs that managed to rob off with our bait too :O Shocking!

This will forever make me laugh. Pretty good reaction to catching a... stone.

I'm, holding a crab, and what?

We found a dead crab, so we played with it.


And this was the final catch, pretty sure there were three in there.
