Fishing 2010 part 2


I guess I learned a hard lesson yesterday... That both of my boys love animals. Nothing wrong with that and I suppose it comes from their mom. We caught a huge bluegill and I wanted to take it home and eat it. You two had a fit and refused to let me do so. I suppose if there is a lesson to be learned is to let you know what we are doing before we get there. Matt and I came to an agree ment and decided if you catch somthing on YOUR pole you decide what to do with it.  -- Its great thinking from a six year old.....

Fishing 2010


OK we have been doing quite alot of fishing this year. Last year I slowly bought a pole here and a lure here or there. This year it has been all worm fishing. I have to say we have been doing great. I wanto to tell you to get back to the simple stuff in what you are doing. With a simple hook and worm bait we have been having more and more fun. Blue gill and bull heads. Keep it fun and just do it to spend time together. The quest is more important than the prize sometimes.....
This is a simple list of what to bring with.....
  • Water in a jug - to drink
  • water in a jug to wash
  • hooks and extra line
  • fingernail clippers - easy to clip lines and knots
  • frozen juice boxes 
  • snax
  • worms - mixed night crawlers or trout worms even wax worms 
  • bobbers
  • hats and bug spray
  • beef jerky
any thing else is just icing on the cake .... just remember to keep it comfortable....
