By my 5 year old and her pink zebco. Of course I wouldn't want it any other way. Her biggest fish of the day was a 29.5" walleye.

That's awesome! If your going to get outfished it might as well be by one of your kids, a win win situation for sure.

Very nice fish and great smile on a happy daughter. Did she happen to tell you her secret lure?

Very nice! I'm sure there are plenty of people who get up there and never catch one that big.

Here's a catfish I caught on my Zebco 202 :)

Nothing better than spending time in canoe country with your kid!!

Awesome - I have never caught a walleye that nice and I am 49. 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.

Getting out-fished is no big deal. I get out-fished all the time although less frequently by 5-year olds.

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.

Great Job Dad, my family has a Scooby Doo fishing pole that has kicked my butt many of times.

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.

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.
