Grandkids And Fishing: Age ?

Hi,

All kids are different, of course, but was wondering about your
experience with Grandkids:

How young can they be, and still enjoy some introductory fishing
experiences ?

Hints ?

Can hardly wait.

I took my granddaughters to a pay to play trout lake when they were 2
1/2 & 5. They had such a good time that they keep begging my daughter
to take them fishing or to go visit grandpa so that I can take them
fishing. Unfortunately they live in Minnesota while I'm in Washington,
so that doesn't happen too often. They were catching more trout than
anyone else on the lake. Everyone else was using power bait or worms.
I had set them up with about size 14 nymphs about 18" behind a casting
bubble on their little Princess/ Barbie spinning rods, and had them
retrieve super slow. The only problem I had was that my daughter & her
husband kept wanting to get the rods from their kids so they could get
in on the fun.
