Happiest moment as a Grandpa -- take my granddaughter fishing!!

Featured Replies

Life is good... My mission is complete...  Introduce my 6 yr old granddaughter to fishing with her own Shakespeare children's rod & reel combo (an ultra-lite to us adults).

She had a ball and wanted to catch tiny sunfish in the little church pond that I took her to here in Beaufort, SC (off base military housing). I'm here visiting for the weekend...

Took my two kids fishing in both the boat and from the bank, and now I take the grandkids.  They are very much like me, a slow methodical fisherman.  I learned early the trips have to be short while their young, forget about fishing yourself, and bring lots of snacks!

Dang @Mike L You are old! 😀
 

I went fishing this week. Spent the week with my 1 yr old granddaughter (only grandchild). She didn’t go fish with me, but when Meme (my wife) called, I saw G (short for Georgia) on the phone and she recognized me. So, that’s kinda like taking her, right?

Yeah, but I still have my own teeth and a full head of hair!!

 

As long as somehow you’re both together does it really matter how?

You can clearly see the concentration on my granddaughter's face in this photo from yesterday!
