Daughters first crappie

Now she's caught a many fish including crappie. Such as bedding fish or trolling flats or spawning bg or catfish or even fish that caught her with float & jig. But today the water was tan and we were finessing jigs in and around tops. She was fishing a 1 inch gold glitter jig with an orange tail from Bobs jigs on a 1/64 oz head. I was coaching her to stay in contact with jig ...now let it fall...reel some...that sort of thing. I didn't see the thump but I heard the drag screech for a second. She caught a few more after that and knew she missed many more. That's my girl.Attachment 414857

Always great to see the next generation being taught the love of fishing, especially by a proud father!

It's so fun to teach the young ones how to look for that thump with new techniques. WTG dad!!!

She is hooked now

I was surprised at how much she really enjoyed it. Yeah she stayed engaged for the 2 hours we had to fish. And growled a couple times when she missed the hook set.

Nice !
nothing like it!

It’s still a challenge taking my daughter out but she seems to enjoy it and wants to go so we will keep at it. Congrats to your daughter on her finesse jigging catch. I know that makes you proud daddy. Hopefully she keeps the interest in it. Awesome job dad.

I know for a fact she’s got a good teacher with a ton of patience. So she will go far as a fisherwoman.
