I thought this morning that I might introduce my 3 year old, Owyn, to fishing. So, off to Canadain Tire we went.... one Spiderman Rod and a 1 shelf tackle box (more for treats than lures at this point) and a quick stop at the bait shop then we were off.
At the Wendover Launch as soon as I got there I saw a school of bass about 8 feet out. Helped him cast his worm and hook and he immediately caught his first fish, a smally. He spent the rest of the morning catching little rock bass and one black crappie (which I have never personally caught hahaha). He DID NOT want to leave to go home and eat lunch. I am guessing we're going back again tomorrow..... he wants to catch the big pike I caught!
Fishing is a heritage we need to teach. Take a kid fishing! And take me too while you're at it.
As I sit here expecting our first child any day now, and thinking back to the time spent with my father fishing, I vote this the feel good post of the year. Those are memories that will last a life time
Thanks for sharing
P.S. I already have a pink "fisher girl" rod in the garage
But I kept fishig with my oldest boy and now he is 10 and can put on a clinic. I got my 6 year old his first bass and first pike this summer but from experience I know I have to keep him interested.
great! you sure have tons of fun ahead of you. lots of places to go around here.
Seize the moments
I am going to be lost this week as my young partner will be away at camp
He is at a fishing camp.
. I wish many more fish to come.
