Chris said: I wish I had youngsters to take. I do take my wife. My father
wasn't much
of a bass fisher and never fished with lures or spinners. So, it's
somewhat
a new discovery to me
Go visit the local fish clubs. Local tackle shops will tell you where they
meet. The Bass and Panfish clubs have good outings with kids and they
always need volunteers. Local FFF and TU clubs also have meetings. Ask the
officers if they know any boys or girls that need a big brother/sister and
you and your wife can take them fishing. Also many service clubs, parks and
city organizations have fishing events for kids during the summer.
Volunteers are always needed and appreciated. Getting involved with a club
will put you in touch with fishng buddies and mentors for yourself. You
will receive plenty of dividends. I remember once when club volunteers
helped keep a boy from goiing down the wrong road.

Good luck!

Thanks. I'm fishing more and more it seems. So I figure laws of averages
will eventually have me catching a nice sized bass for dinner.

An acceptable option is catching 3-4 smaller but legal sized bass!

Good Luck.
