:) sounds like a nice family picnic! i too brought my little 6yr old girl to our local reservoir for a mini fishing trip which i was trying to show her how to nap a peacock bass, i did luring with artificial baits, in the end i took potshots but no bite and hookups, but still was good fun and enjoyment:)

Very nice. If only more people took their kids fishing. My little boy and I are off to go fishing today as well.

Took my kids fishing today as well, to my surprise there were no blue gill to be found. Usually they are all over the place. Unfortunately the kids didn't catch anything off of worms but I caught 10 LMB off of Rooster Tails and Swimbaits.. nothing big, the largest one was 14".
