report cards and ballpark franks

And you might ask yourself what on earth that might have to do with crappie right ?
Well i would say this about that , Bluegill love weenies and a good report card makes for big smiles .
Last day of school yesterday and pick up your stuff and report card and see ya . So what does a dad do with half a day off work and a loss of only an hour on said school activities ?
He says hey you want to go fishing ? She says YES !
So off to Ez's place we went for some ketchn of fish . The little is getting to be right good at it lately and i was pretty sure i would get to ketch a crappie or 2 and quite possibly a few bluegill .
We only stayed a little over an hour due to the pizza/movie party we had planned for her celebration ,but boy howdy was THE BITE on FIRE !
She stopped at 42 bluegill and i managed about a dozen crappie for grins in the back ground . Not many larger fish in the mix ,but to be sure they ate baits like crazy .
The crappie liked a pearl head jig with a pearl plastic on it no scent required kuz ….
(i didn't have none ) :Rofl
The bluegill were flat out in love with and literally fighting each other over the ballpark franks . She used a float a little while and she dropped it vertical and she managed at least 15 or so with no help what so ever from me . Heck at one point she said WOW dad look at this one , and i turned around to see a beautiful fat bluegill dangling on her rod tip.
I kinda wish i could have concentrated on the crappie as they were for sure hungry and in numbers , but the kid ketchn fire out of the bluegills was a nice distraction no doubt .
she has to have me take them off the hook , the rest of it she has handled .
We did feed a heron about a half dozen and let the rest swim on . She loves the great blues and this one was friendly and really large . The fascination on her face watching it eat them and even spear a few was worth every second of the traffic and odd drivers i encountered along the way .
Thanks so much Ez for the cans of pringles for the ride home and the opportunity to enjoy such a bounty of fish in peace and quiet .
KABOOM times 2 is the words yawl :highfive

That’s a day you’ll both remember forever! Awesome pictures!

Good times....making memories

It does my heart good to see parents who give there time to teach and spend time with their children. If there is a bright spot in this situation its parents have spent more time with their children than ever before. Congratulations to the both of you.

Do you know how a child spells LOVE?.....T-I-M-E !!
Time spent with the kids is an investment that keeps on paying down the road.
Well done !!

Perfect KABOOM! Well done dad. Looking forward to more times like these with my daughters.

Great day for sure, thanks for sharing.

Man, she put the KABOOM on that report card didn’t she? Excellent little student you got there! Good job to the both of you. A+

Absolutely AWESOME!!! [emoji2]

Okay, we all see that both her and you had on Kaboom hats, maybe it helped. But can really see that she is as big a ham, in front of the camera, as you are. Boy 42 gills for her, in a short time, excellent. Maybe now she is hooked, as long as it's short gigs. Keep sharing, love these father/daughter posts.

Way to go! There is definitely a lot of satisfaction watching the young un's ketchen on their own, the smiles say it all.

What everyone said! Great day!

Could not be more perfect!

she has her own kids Youtube channel , so I would venture to say its a mild ham compared to her other ham …..just saying
as far as the sunfish , they were right in front of us in plain view and literally fighting over the bait . you really couldn't not ketch them by the herds .
yesterday we ketched tadpoles and crawdads by our house , so you see it not just a limited ketchn opportunity if you hang with me .:Rofl
today I think we will go ketch other things , the blackberries are ready at our place in the woods …..:highfive

and mom said don't go bragging about her , you will hurt someone's feelings. I have hard time with that part , pretty proud of her accomplishments at her age to say the least . We have her in a state school of the fine arts and its very tough curriculum . 8 teachers that are all determined to make the kids excel in every part of the education process .
it is a very strict school right down to the uniforms for all the different classes . heck just to get in we had to audition with a herd of other people for the 2 spots available last year in second grade . that in itself was worth a little bragging I thought
thanks for the kind words my friend .:highfive

You should have all shown up with your KABOOM hats. That would have nailed the interview sure!:Rofl

Looks like little bit is hitting a growth spurt, looks taller?!
Heck yeah brag on her every chance you get!
I love and appreciate, when people earn, work for things!
I don’t believe in a trophy for everyone, I do believe in winning and loosing.
