Awesome post. I'll have to think about it.

The other night I caught a 20#+ chinook with my 2 y.o. daughter on my back in one of those kid-packs cheering me on. That was a huge thrill, something that has always been on my list, and I finally had it happen. I was super stoked by that.

When he first thrashed in front of us, she was like "oooooh, dat's a big one Dad!" Then when we were releasing him she was like "You catch 'im Dad? You catch 'im?" Then she patted me on my head for doing a good job.

That was such a great moment.
