The Girl Likes To Fish

I took my oldest daughter fishing this afternoon and she caught her first fish, and then her second, third and fourth ones, too! The day's tally included one bluegill, two perch, and a largemouth bass. 

Unfortunately, none were big enough to keep, as you can see in the picture, but the smiles sure were keepers! We're going out again Tuesday afternoon, weather permitting.

Now, now, there is no need to get nasty.

This is, after all, a family publication, so please keep the comments positive!

Dog,
Got my wife hooked over the last month and some of our best times are on the water. Now she wants to go more often than I. Good for you and your girl. Nothing beats some fresh air after watching the markets all week.

Good for you Masterjaz!

I never thought my girly girl would be interested in fishing, but now she wants to go every day!

She likes to touch the worms and release the fish, so I have high hopes she will eventually be able to bait her own hook and take the fish off the hook, too!

She is now asking me to buy a boat so we can get out to deeper water and bigger fish!
