Good Morning, all. I took my 7 year old as my tailgunner today and we had a blast. The rear well is a perfect size for a minature passenger, and its great to have someone manning the trolling rod as we travel. We got into some bass again, and I was able to teach my daughter a little about what to look for. Also able to work on her cast. She's beginning to get some distance, and can put it close to where I tell her. We caught 4 and then chased the school around for a while, not a bad way to spend the morning! She still doesn't like to handle the fish unless she has to!

Those times are always the best and you have the photos to prove it!

The pictures say it all, you have to love your time on the water with your loved ones.

Great way to teach her to fish. Do all you can with her now and those teenage years will be much more pleasent.

Hopefully. My Dad took me fishing all the time, and though I turned out okay, I'm still suprised he didn't bury me in the backyard when I was 15.

mojo- I right there with you... Really surprized to have made it this far, considering the teen years. Yep- I'm in the market for barbed wire, shot guns, and cactus.

Hi AAtrain,
thank you very much for sharing your report with us. It´s nice to see that you show your daughter (I have one with 3 years too) the fishing in early ears.
That will be something she never will forget.
You know "Angler are the better humans"
Best wishes,
