Here is a picture of the first crappie my daughter caught. It was caught in our pond and I could not have been happier if I had caught a 4 pounder! We went bluegill fishing last weekend and everytime we would catch one she would ask if it was a crappie while winding it in. When I would say no, she would say "you can just get it then". When she saw this one was a crappie here eyes lit up. I think I have her trained right!!
Congratulations Mr. Scott to you and your daughter! I know your proud!
Congratulations! Did she want to keep it and eat it?
My oldest thinks we should practice catch and release, even with bream.
I asked if she caught a 3 lber if she was going to put it back or get it mounted. She said" uh, I am going to eat it"! She loves to eat fish. I threw this one back without asking.
Cool Pic. Scott!!! Congrats to Gracie and you.. She is off to a great start!!!
That is awesome Scott. I remember when my daughter caught her first crappie and the look on her face. She still gets excited when she hooks a fish and she is 12 now. I hope you have many more memories to go with this one
Awesome!!!! That girl's "hooked" for life:)
That is great!
Great picture and a priceless memory.
Scott, cute child there. We need a big crappie pond out here in Eva
Yeah, been talking about digging about 4-5 acres at the house but I do not think it will happen soon. About the closest crappie pond to Eva is Lake Catoma (sp?) maybe a few in Lake George.Quote:

Lake George is between Cullman and Eva between Hwy 31 and CR 1435 (road that runs from Eva to 157. It think you turn west on CR 1301 off Cr 1435 and this will take you to a boat ramp. I have never had a boat in the lake.
Nothing better then taking your kids fishing and seeing them catch there first fish.I know your a proud father.
That one is a KEEPER!!! She'll remember it and be proud of that picture all her life. My girls love to go after a good start like that one there.
Scott, here is a link to a "My First Fish" certificate that she might get a kick out of.
