Took my 8 yr old daughter on a fishing trip to Bastrop this morning. I normally only let her fish a split shot rigged finnese worm to lessen the chance of her catching Dad. She pestered me enough to let her fish with something else so I tied on a SB for her. She caught a 16" and a 18" and the sqeals she let out fighting them was absolutely priceless. I don't know who was prouder, her or me. Wish I knew how to post pics so ya'll could see the ear to ear smiles. By the way, she whupped up on Dad

What were they biting on today down there ? I am heading there in the morning.

Yeah!!! Those moments are priceless man!
Were you guys on a boat or bank fishing?

 

[ChampionNate]

Caught a few on SB (well, at least she did) and mostly was slow. Did catch a few on CR in 12'-20' at the discharge. Didn't see any schoolies but was off the lake by noon

That's cool.. I took my daughters a couple of weekends ago. Took some minnows and fish the lighted docks here on Travis. It was a good time. I'm trying to work on my oldest. Just need to get her hooked up with a big LM.

The towel is because she doesn't want to get the "fish smell" on her. Definately a girl. LOL. Got her fishing, now I'll work on the details, HA

Nice fish! When I ask to go fishing, usually I get an ear full. When my daughter asked to go fishing, we go!

I love the 'fish smell' on my fingers/hands. Something tells me I'm not the minority here.

I love it too. It's kind of mushroomy, green and fresh. Reminds me of good times.

+1 on the rod. That's a promo pic for the rod, if ever there was one!

Rmfa & Jim- I thought the exact same thing! I pulled out 3 LMB yesterday at our stock tank here at work. Went home with that "sweet scent" on my hands! Love it

Thanks for sharing the pics. She looks a happy camper for sure.

Fish smell? The first fish I catch I make a point to rub both of my hands on the fish before I relese it. then I rub my hands together to get the smell on it real good and then I let it dry. It keeps my human scent off the baits, and I think it helps me catch more fish. I've done this all my life.
