Tim, I would give anything to take my youngest daughter on such a venture.
She was always my fishin's buddy, I sure miss her, we would have the
greatest time (her laugh is so contagious and so fun) and we seldom caught
many fish. We tried to rob a fish trap one time, that was a kick!

Thanks for sharing your experience, it made my day!

Chris Fanning, sounds like you got an early Father's day present to me!

It was a perfect day in New England to do whatever outdoors activity you
wanted.
After a day of hard labor around the house, it was time to get out and
enjoy. It
took a lot of discipline, but I left all my fishing stuff in the car while
#2
son, Scott (21 years old), and I canoed around a East Brimfield Reservoir.
We
traveled about three or four miles in all, staying near the shore as much
as
possible. We saw beaver, turtles, and lots of fish - enough so Scott said
he'd
like to get his fishing license this week and do it again soon. Since he
swore
off fishing about four years ago, this was good to hear.

I'm looking forward to the next trip, but, with rod or without, it's good
to be
out with him, talking, laughing, and actually having the time to enjoy
each
other.
