Hey guys,
A quick photo report. This summer has been crazy busy but I promised each one of my kids a solo trip in the boat. Last night a window opened up and I was able to take my youngest out for her turn with Dad. On our way out to the lake we picked up some minnows from my wife's cousins who own Erie Bait & Tackle and am I ever glad we did. I don't often use live bait but they were ALL OVER Claira's minnows last night. I managed 1 fish for 2 casts and Claira fought it for me. lol I was to busy putting minnows on her hook every two seconds. I'm pretty sure she lost 3 minnows for every landed fish.. Hard to get a good hookset in with her ice fishing rod. haha It's all good though be cause she had a blast. I think it's time to graduate to a bigger rod.
First cast, she hammers her personal best Rock Bass ( big deal when you're 4 )
After that she crushed the crappie one after another and wouldn't you know it she catches her personal best crappie several times over! That's how she got her new nickname "Claira the Crappie Crusher" or "Tripple C". lol
There were some little largies mixed in as well...
Don't worry about the net Dad - I'll just pump him in!!!
Okay... GET THE NET for this one!!!
Personal best Crappie... and he's heavy...
Crack off one more and then let's go for a swim...
Okay Kid.... time to go because Mom will be texting me to get home.. not you!
One more cast on our way in Dad.... Ok.
BOOM.
Personal best Largemouth..
Stretch those arms out and make him look extra big! lol
A night I will remember for the rest of my life.
Have a great week folks.
