Couple weeks ago I took my niece Kira fishing on a hot muggy evening. In the past she would bring toys and coloring books to entertain herself when she was bored. Times have changed and she is now extremly interested in everything about fishing and why things are done a certain way. She sat in the front of the boat and controlled the trolling motor while she picked her spot from the selections I gave her. She had a million questions about the fish finder and why would a fish bite a fake bait instead of a real one. Her conclusion is that fish are kinda dumb.
Her pole set up of choice for this day was a pink Ugly Stick she got for her birthday rigged with a pink bobber and pink Wally Marshall hook. She chose to use wax worms over minnows because the wax worms looked tasty. After about twenty minutes she caught her very first Crappie ever.

She also caught many small bluegills that day.

Its a safe bet to say that she is hooked for life now and she has decided to teach my daughter the way of a fishergirl. Yesterday I was doing some maintenance on my boat, poles, and installing an onboard charger when I was joined by some helpers.

Its nice to know that I'll always have great fishing partners in the future.

I decided to take the family out and try out the new batch of squirrel killers. Well, the day was far from catching a limit of crappie, actually, I never even got a bite. BUT, I did have one of the most enjoyable days on the water I have had in a really long time.

who won the first one ??????????
This is my son Braydun, he is 5 years old and loves to fish and spend what he calls "our man time" together. Haha. This was his third time going crappie fishing with me. The first time out I did most everything. Meaning held the rod, set the hook, an then he realed them in. He was hooked from the start as was i at his age. Our second trip out all he wanted to do was cast his rod all by himself. He told me that he was going to be better than me soon. The drive he had to improve was incredible. Then brings us to our third trip. I dedcided it was time an he was ready to learn to take care of buissiness on his own. He was jumping at the bit to get his little zebco 11 ultra-light and teach me how it was done. So we hit the lake an when we got to my favorite tree off i sent him. He handed me the minnow and i baited his hook an off we went. I was so anxious for him that i didnt even get a rod out of the box all day. It didnt take long an he had his first crappie in the boat, all by himself he casted it, set the hook and reeled him in all on his own. He was so proud of himself, but no where near as proud as I was. The iceing on this cake was when we got home to momma she asked if he had a good time an his response was " of coarse I did, Im daddys #1 fishing buddy." So to my number one fishing buddy. Dads proud of you!
