1st fish

My youngest daughter's best friend never caught a fish before yesterday. So I decided to introduce her to the wonderful world of angling. We went a a local farm pond and slammed the gills. The girls all caught as many as they wanted, didn't even need bait. They were swarming our bare jigs on ever cast. I love to see the smile on a kids face when they catch a fish, especially their 1st. I even let her keep the rod so she has one of her own now. Next summer her litte brother is next.

    Awesome man! You're right seeing kids catch fish (especially their first) is one of the best things about the sport. Good job!

    Excellent.  Good for you.
