Internet Toy for the Day

Feed my fish by clicking anywhere on the image. (I hope the food part works. It did on the site where I made this, but not in my preview).


Or make your own fish by going to this site. (found via Miss Cellania)

So, any fishermen among us? (I mean real fishermen).  I'm not, one of the few non-fishermen types in my family. I think it was the experience of sitting in a boat being bitten by bugs when I was small that did the trick. It was not my idea of fun. Now, as an adult I can see how peaceful it might be to sit on the shore enjoying nature and waiting for a fish to bite. But...I'm so not into the next part, reeling it in, taking the fish off the hook, cleaning it. Eek! I'm too squeamish for that.

So...convince me. I'm a lover of nature, a hiker, sometimes a biker. Just not a fishergirl.

Have fun fishing!

  2. That is so cute and fun! I think I was overfeeding them...
    I have caught 1 fish in my life and that poor thing was struggling so much it took a while to get it off the hook... set it free, never fished again...

  4. I used to work for Travel Oregon and during that time I made some memorable outdoors trips. Here's a link to my "fish" story, on their blog. Hope you enjoy it! --Lisa

  5. Thanks to everyone for "fishing" (or feeding the fish).

    Mary, it's a fun time waster, isn't it? Kind of hynotic.

    Colleen, see that's just how I am. I project my feelings onto the fish. No one can tell me that a hook doesn't hurt.

    Julie, how's that labradoodle going? (I want one of those, too).

    Lisa, that was an interesting article. You're braver than I am. I would have been handing the pole over to someone else!
