Springers of a different flavor.
Spent the day with Thomas and a friends daughter.
Went to a friends private pond.

Thomas tried to put on a show by catching this bucketmouth right away.
Don't matter the species, if it swims, he's all over it...



But it was this little lady that stole the show.
She went from being afraid to touch the fish...



To hamming it up with the best of them...



These pretty slabs provided lots of action...







What part of cute don't you understand?????



That was a good day....
Sal

I see Thomas has his braces off now. Great pictures and your friends daughter is a cutie. It is great to take the time take kids fishing.
