My little girl has been on me the past month to take her fishing. Finally got a string of nice weather so Thursday I sunk a 5 gallon bucket of soured Milo in a oxbow in hopes to make for a action packed trip.
Today was the day, she woke up early and was ready. I told her let it warm up a bit after much persistence we headed out around 9. The catfish were piled up in there, cork went under as soon as it hit the water. This didn't do much help for her attention span. After 45 min of tangles, hang ups and knots she was ready to call it a day and move onto rock chunking!
Reluctant to leave a honey hole, but I gave in. And we went home. Planning a lone wolf early morning ambush tom! She caught 13, and was excited telling mama what she caught. Guess that's all that matters.

Re: Daughters fishing adventure
That's great! 13 cats in 45 minutes is slamming it .
That should have her excited to head out again soon. A slow day can really turn a kid off. Smart thinking prepping the scene for her.

Actually just about to start on the fish fry project! I always donate to a church and the local 4H program fish fry fund raiser. I like to fish, and they needed a fundraiser. Always felt like a win win. Made a lot of good friends and farmers through that, wasn't ever my intent but funny how life works out sometimes.
Life is hard; It’s even harder if you are stupid.
