FIRST BOAT FISHING EXPERIENCE

8-11-2014--Quite often folks ask me what is the right age to start taking youngsters on fishing boats. Today's group of 3,4 and 5 year old sisters did very well on a half day trip. I'm sure a full day trip would have been way too much but the half day was just right. When I left them, at eleven; mother, dad and the three girls were on their way to have fish cooked for lunch. In addition to trout they caught large sand trout, gafftop

sail catfish, some kind of small jack fish and undersized redfish. We had to help hold the rods but the girls did all the reeling in.
