All 25 children caught at least one fish. There were four adults and we were baiting hooks and releasing fish as fast as we could. It was a great day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22957834.post-47250445583098598482007-07-25T01:10:00.000-05:002007-07-25T01:10:00.000-05:00I hope Reno's wife is feeling better.

Good thing about 'em coming out easier. When I was a kid, nobody I knew would ever think of de-barbing the hooks. Wouldn't want to loose a fish.<BR/><BR/>mustanger98Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22957834.post-85571347711591667812007-07-24T12:22:00.000-05:002007-07-24T12:22:00.000-05:00Get some black ant "flies", snap off the barbs, an...Get some black ant "flies", snap off the barbs, and put one out about 18 inches ahead of a small red & white bobber. All of the other kids were using worms, corn, bread and lures, with little or no results. My son and I were using the ants and just kept pulling in sunnies, one after another. Which is why I always have a half-dozen or so ants along with me when we go fishing. Lucky of I have any left at the end of the day, but it makes the kids happy! <BR/>Oh, with barbless hooks the kids will lose a few fish, but the hooks come out of fingers and arms [and toes!] much easier.

She was a bit put-out when she landed a 2.5 pound Bow, that she claimed was trying to steal HER new rod! Quite pissed off she was!

We were at a neighbors pond and both girls were pulling half dollar sized bluegills out one after another. Suddenly she started yelling "DADDY DADDY!" I ran over and grabbed hold of her and the pole just as a nice size Smallmouth jumped and broke the line. Needless to say she was excited . A couple weeks later my wife caught what I believe was the same fish. It was about 22 in long and put up a good fight on full size tackle.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027592211556054445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22957834.post-16648126360260825932007-07-22T16:25:00.000-05:002007-07-22T16:25:00.000-05:00Oh, the fishing rig link was a good'un.
