Riddle me this if you can number 1?

2 fathers and 2 sons go on a fishing trip. They each catch 1 fish. The total number of fish caught is 3. How can that be?

Update:

Great job everyone. You all have the best answeer, but since I have to pick one, I guess the fair thing to do is pick the first responce. Thank all of you for your responces...Peace.
