Father Daughter...

Thanks guys! She did have a great time and she keeps asking when we are going back. She is my little fishing buddy.
My only problem on soft water is that I told her one time that the rule is that we don't come in until we limit out or its too dark to fish... I was trying to set an expectation of a long day and avoid her getting bored and thinking that coming in was an option. Now when we aren't catching anything for 2-3 hours and it's 3:00 in the afternoon she says to me, "Daddy, we don't go in until we limit or it's dark, that's what you said."

Thanks again everyone!

Glad you took my advice on not going out on the Erie for Walleye with her......nice big shelter you have.......... kids like to fish, like to SEE FISH in the water, and like to CATCH fish...we all know that......but especially in their early fishing trips. Bluegills & Sunfish are always winners to them, size doesn't matter. Next Spring you'll have to find somebody with a pond to take her fishing.........anyone out there with such a pond volunteering? I bet you get a reply! Hope so!
