My Grandson's Bounty from Last Thursday Afternoon

We have been successful from the bank for several years now but I set a goal this season for the kids to get out on the rivers for some quality fishing and last Thursday was our best day ever together on the boat.....84 fish total including multiple gills of 10" or better.....We released the larger gills and kept 42 from 8 to 9.5 inches for a weekend feast......Looking forward to getting them out again this week!

That's kinda funny and usually all it takes is the initial bite then there sold. It's funny how kids think and unfortunately I can't remember that far back to remember what they think but I know sometime being parents and grand parents we have to figure out ways and ingenuity's on our part to get it to happen. Got to lovem.

Absolutely Dick.....a funny part of the story is we had to call fried fish by the name "fish chicken" to get the kids to try it but now all three of them enjoy it which is cool too......
