Fishing on Mull - backlip

This little robin stayed with us all morning whilst my son was fishing. 

As a vegan, I don't normally take part in fishing,  but my son asked me to join him, so I did, He caught a large rainbow trout. What a beautiful and colourful fish! I've only ever seen them lifeless, well cooked and colourless on someone's plate. The sight of a dead fish on a plate, with an eye still looking at me, was one of the things that forced me into being vegan in the first place. (That's the way they normally serve rainbow trout, isn't it? With the head still on. )

Vegan or not, I don't impose my dietary choices or principles on others. My son isn't vegan; neither is the robin or the fish.

 I've decided not to share a photo of the fish on here, as a picture of a fish out of water isn't my thing. Next year, I will take an underwater camera and pole,  and will do fishing in my own way.  :-)
