That's awesome.

Make sure you get the kids to Capt. Ron Bakers 14th annual trout Derby at Lake Poway. Feb 7th. OEX will be there this year. Always an awesome event. Over 600 kids attended last year and the fishing was GREAT.

Great Post!

My youngest daughter is 7 and told me she wants to go out on my kayak this summer. Seeing another girl her age catching fish just got her more excited to go. I've been fishing with my dad since before I can remember doing it. Great to see you pass down the thrill to your kids. Hopefully you'll still be fishing with them when you're in your '80s like my father and I. Mike

Definitely get your daughter out fishing.I dont really have the perfect setup for taking her,I just paddle with her in my lap and then she sits on the "Humminbird compatable" part of my Big Game.So far it works,but she is very little at 42# and I am going to have to figure out something different soon.
I fished as far back as I can remember.My grandfather and dad fished with Bill Poole on the origional Polaris.My dad had a CC growing up and we fished all the time.My dad thought it was funny to hand me a rod with a 40# albie on it when I was 7.Before it was all over I was crying but got the fish in with him helping to hold the rod at the end.We went to Cat. so much one summer my Brother and I jumped off and explored the Island all day.I found a Ram skull and a bunch of Abolone shells.Fishing memories are great memories.
I remember a few years ago when I was thinking about getting a kayak,I remember A guy taking his little boy out to LJ and handing him off a firecracker YT.That would be awesome.

What's even better is when they catch one themselves...keep it up, soon the kids will outfish you.
