Sat 7/6 - Take a kid fishing

[BentRod]

I haven't had a chance to post up a report from last Saturday. Took an old neighbor and his three boys along with one of the boys friends. They had been at the lake for the holiday and hadn't had much luck jogging on the Blackwater so I had them come over for a morning of live baiting. We checked BnBs first but it was ridiculous over there..3,700 boats and I didn't really see anything impressive. So we bounced over to another creek to get our fish. The boys had already set up a "catching order" so they went to work once we started picking up fish. I had more fun watching them catch fish than I do fishing myself. They had a ball and each one caught at least 4-5 fish..think we had 18 total by about 10am. Most of the fish were in the 5-8lb class with a few in the 10-12lb class. I eased out into some deeper water the last hour looking for a good school but they didnt show up. They handled the circle hooks perfectly without any instruction from me which was amazing bc it took me 3 years to coach Mward on that!!

I didn't get many pictures as their dad was the designated camera man. He got some good video of a quadruple hook up they had!






If you ever get the opportunity to take a kid fishing, whether its yours or not, do it! Nothing else like it!

Nice - looks like they did have a blast! Also, looks like they are also old enough to handle the "down-time" with a little more patience but sounds like you didn't give them much down-time - good going!

Sweet Report!!!!!

but I have 2 questions....

1. Why does everyone always give mward a hard time??... Bless his heart.

2. Quadruple hookup?? .... you didn't count yourself???

[BentRod]

Can you give me a good reason why we shouldn't give Mward a hard time?! Case closed.

[Deleted]

Not really.....but what about the second question?

[CorneliaGale]

Nice report, always nice to see the kids catching fish, they sure enjoy it and remember it forever

[BentRod]

No quadruple hookups for me.

[mwardncsu]

Heck, a double-hookup would be more than he could handle. We are still talking about the Jetski girl, right

[Deleted]

Well, I was, but I think he may be just a little gun shy when it comes to beautiful, sexy, well endowed, slim, seductive, bikini wearing, blue eyed, crazy, lying, blonde, jetskigirls.

Ha!!! after reading that, I bet he text her before he responds. lol

I even heard thru the grapevine, that he even let her wear his artic armor suit.

[BentRod]

She did wear the Artic Armour suit but then she took it off, all off!

beautiful, sexy, well endowed, slim, seductive, bikini wearing, blue eyed, crazy, lying, blonde,

All very good qualities in girls and I especially appreciate the lying...since I have gotten older it makes it easier if they are already down vs. having to tackle them.

Enjoyed the report. Good on you from taking some kids out. Something we all need to do more of.

Great Report Tyler as always!

As a new guy here, as much as jetski girl comes up around here, it must be a heck of a story

It was a pretty solid story. There were a few sequels as well but who can blame me..she looked good in the Artic Armour and not in it! And I'm still alive so it was a win win!

Thanks. The kids were extremely well mannered (which I expected knowing my neighbors) and very "into" fishing so it was a fun trip all around. They were baiting the hooks, netting the fish, and telling me where the honey holes were by the end of the trip! Haha
