This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Way Passed His Bed Time Shore Walleyes With My Little Guy!!!

Post by Walleye'm Fishing »

I brought him out way passed his bed time in the hopes that the night walleye bite from shore was still hot. We fished for 90 minutes at the most and we were casting jigs tipped with various grubs and swim baits. We began the outing by catching a few smaller walleyes and crappies. The evening ended on a high note when we caught and released two giants measuring 25 and 22 inches.

Needless to say, my son was impressed! :D

Getting to stay up past my bedtime for a special occasion was always the events that stuck out in my mind (many memories I have to this day!), so this is a golden one here for sure! (<--- see what I did there :wink: )

Love that bottom pic. The arc of the Eye and the smiles? Just perfect!

If those fish from shore don't get him hooked of fishing for life, I don't know what else will. Good job dad!

Thanks gang, my daughter wanted to join us that evening but it was too late for her. The following day she didn't want to see the fishing pics because she was bitter with me for leaving her at home with mom. I think that I owe her one good fishing outing... :lol:
