I haven't really had a chance to take her out fishing.  Well, a couple of times but not really expecting any real results.

With a shakeup in the family, I wasn't sure I was ever going to see her again, but thankfully we got a day and my wife and I took her fishing at the ponds.

We saw a TON of Bluegill, but couldn't get them to bite.  Then she made a crazy cast and yells "Papa, I got one!"  I watched her reel up her first fish.  The mighty Bluegill and gateway drug to all other fishing!

What a thrill it was to see!  Now to start moving to bigger and better any chance we get to see her again!  Maybe some 100+ pound BFT by the fall on her Princess rod?  lol
