Hobbies With Me

     Some of my favorite hobbies are playing sports, fishing, and hunting.  During the Summer I am playing baseball.  It is one of my favorite sports beside football but that's during the school year.  When baseball is going on Io like to play catch more often than I do.  I play right or center field and I think I'm pretty good at that position.  At batting I don't hit the ball as much as other kids though when I  hit the ball it  goes pretty far.  There are people on my team that can hit way farther than me.  That doesn't really matter to me because I can get better at batting.

     I like to fish on the Mississippi River when I'm on a boat.  I usually use worms, plastic frogs, little minnows for cat fish.  The biggest fish I ever caught there was a muskie.  The fish was extensive.  It was about four feet long and weighed five or six pounds.  When I got done reeling it in we put it on a stringer and hung it on the side of the boat.  We brought it to my grandpas house so he could gut it and give it to my grandma to clean.  We ate it and it tasted sensational.  Now it is my favorite fish to eat.   I hope to catch a bigger fish sometime.


     Hunting is my favorite thing to do in the winter is hunting.  I like to use the bow more than a gun.  I don't know why I just always have.  I like to go hunting with my uncle and dad the most.  My dad and I go out to my grandpa's timber.  My uncle and I go out to the quarry where my grandpa works  The longest I went hunting for is about three hours.  We only saw two deer but we got one the other deer was just a fawn.  We skinned it in our garage when we got home.  We brought some meat to my grandma's and grandpa's house so they can make beef jerky out of it.  When they got done I had five pieces.   We brought some to my friends house and they loved it.  We ended up making more and it was still great.            


       Thanks for reading and I hope you like it and there will be more blogs from me.
