Title: Different pond / Different fishing partner
Post by: Al on September 23, 2020, 16:53:06 PM
Got a new fishing partner. Pure Tomboy who is love with everything associated with mother nature.  Lives near one of my NC hunting areas and with permission of her mother helps me put out corn for deer.

Took her to a pond I have access to and showed her how to toss a spin-cast rod.

After her third decent cast she said "I think I have something" - first fish ever for her and it was a nice one

It took awhile but totally on her own she caught another one that was even bigger

Good job Al. 👍🏻
Many of the life's most beautiful smiles seem to be associated with kids holding fish.

Doctor says "keep doing what you're doing" - at 81 I've slowed down a bit but I say "I'm just pacing myself".
