I took my 6 year old daughter on her first fishing experience yesterday. It was at Braunig Lake and it was a fishing clinic for kids 6 to 12. She had a blast and surprisingly she was a very quick study. She only had to see a snell knot get tied once and before the instructor knew it, she had another one tied. Then it was time to fish. The bite started slow but the kids were soon catching little bream. I wasn't able to take any still shots but I did get a few movie clips. Unfortunately they are not digital so I can't post them. Not to brag or anything but she outfished everyone there. Even the 5 older boys. Now all she talks about is when will I take her fishing again. Life is good so enjoy your kids while there still young and want to hang out with you. Take them Fishin and get them HOOKED.

Well done Southernboy! Keep up the good work and take a pic next time, preferably with a fish in her hand.

Southernboy, She'll always remember that and so will you. Those little green fish are memories made of gold. P.S. Roll Tide from another transplant.

There is nothing as exciting to me as my child having a good time fishing. I'd take that over my own fishing fun!
Well done fellas and everybody, take some time, take a kid fishing and show them a good time.
