Off the Dock at Lake Monroe Park

I took my 90 year old dad fishing from the dock at Lake Monroe Park this morning and he landed a nice one and then a lady fishing down from us landed a true slab. I don't know her name but she allowed me to to take a pic of her and her fish. She and her daughter had not been fishing for longer than she could remember, so they bought some minnows two R&R, and some plastic bobbers and headed for the water. I think she would have won the BIG FISH in about any tournament. Maybe we might do better without a boat at the April Slabfest. Just thought I would share my great day watching the joy on my dad and the ladies faces. Take the kids fishing, but don't forget to take the older ones too.

Nice day ! !

My dad and grandfather started me out fishing when I was very young, and got me hooked. Took my kids till they grew up, married, and had kids. My grandfather has long passed away, but I never miss a chance to re-pay my dad and take him out on the water. Some of the best memories I have is on the water with him. That old fart can still put a mess of fish in the boat !!!

Thanks for sharing. I too wish my dad was alive and I could repay him for teaching me to fish.
