quote jswamp: "What a gift to be able to spend quality time fishing with your daughter"Definitely. Life gets busy but Sunday is family day for us. Especially during our 8 or 9 weeks of summer in Grand Marais.

quote Jeriatric: "Getting out-fished is no big deal. I get out-fished all the time although less frequently by 5-year olds."
My wife outfished me too. I just finished releasing this nice fish my wife caught when my daughter hooked her big one. For some reason there weren't many fish where I was casting my bobber:)
I had my fun the weekend before collecting fish for the 4th of July fish fry, including a few nice releases. I hope I don't get stones thrown at me again for posting a stringer photo.

quote Podunk: "That's a good day fishing all the way around! Yougotta watch some of those kids rods though, I found out the hard way that some don't have a drag. Still wondering 20 yrs later what my daughter had one on evening."
My daughter caught some big walleyes last summer and some nice lake trout this spring. We have a system when she hooks a nice fish. I hold the rod against the gunnel and constantly adjust the drag with my thumb while she reels. The drag does want to stick frequently.
