Had a great evening Monday

Featured Replies

We went out on Monday evening to a spot I believed looked promising for Largies. (Bass just opened for us up here)

In 2 hours the 3 of us pulled in 15 largemouth, average being maybe 2 lbs. and the largest maybe 3.5 lbs

The best of it was....Our 11 year old who had only ever caught 1 big Largemouth, caught 6 good sized fish......

I could actually see her learning as the night went on. Her first fish she had the rod tip way over her back....with tons of line between her and the fish. By her 3rd - 6th fish she was recognizing a hit, setting the hook well, reeling down great and muscling the Bass in through the weeds...I was so proud. :)

I only started fishing last year and she never really showed interest until now....I caught her yesterday in my tackle box picking out some lures she wants to try out.

I have her using a Zebco 33 with a 6' Ugly Stick....

I will post a couple of pics later as I am charging the batteries on my camera.

BTW...Fish Count

Little One: 6

My Wife: 4

Me: 5

Again I want to thank everyone on here who helped me learn tactics and strategies to help catch fish....It has opened a whole new way for our family to enjoy time together.

Sounds like one fun family outing.  Just remeber the outings make great memories, enjoy them.  Congrats to your daughter, it seems like she is picking it up quickly.  I hope to help my daughter catch her first bass this fall when she comes back home to visit.  She has caught other fish but not a bass.
