Big Rainbow..

My 9 year old daughter caught this 23.5" 4# 4oz rainbow out of Brady's Run Creek this past weekend. She did this all by herself; cast it out, watched her float, saw the strike, reeled in her slack before setting the hook and fought it in to shore. I was a very proud daddy that day. My other daughter managed to 4 browns herself as well and they caught 12 total in a an hour and a half of fishing. It was a great day....
Now I just have to save up enough money for the mount... LOL.

    Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.

    Thanks ! That's what it is all about. I wouldn't be the angler I am today if my father didn't take me out all the time as a youngster and show me the ropes. I'm trying to pass that along & so far they are doing just fine. I fish with both of them as much as I can and I hunt with my oldest as well.

    Nice job on her catch and your other little girls big day and my hats off to you. Your a great dad for spending time with them in the great outdoors. Tim's a good guy, I've been a customer ever since he opened his first bait shop. I heard they where stocking on Saturday but I never fish much for them,mostly because I've got to make money. lol  I trolled that lake many years ago with my then young son. He caught a 24 in bow that's still in great shape mounted. If you ever need a fish mounted give Billy Shot a call, he's the best there is. Again congrats to you and you little fishergirls.
