When You Go Fishing on the 4th of July, America Happens!

Info from Licensor: "I went out kayak fishing early morning on the 4th of July 2018. I was with my older brother, two adult nephews and my nine-year-old son. We were fishing catch and release. There were a couple of bald eagles fishing on the lake while we were there. We noticed that every time we caught a fish they would fly over or intently watch us. In this case a trout had been hooked badly and was struggling when we released it. Before we could retrieve the trout from the water to use for ourselves a huge bald eagle came over to help himself to the easy meal. The eagle snagged the fish from the water just a few feet away from our kayaks. It was an impressive sight. Those birds are huge and powerful!"
