Managed to finally get out this year, with some of the good reports it was killing me not getting in my February fishing....

Took Maddy out for the maiden voyage... She was watching/working her rod waiting for the "BIG ONE" all day...


After a couple hours of trolling and eating the cooler near dry AND throwing most of the herring in the river, she managed her first bite....


Very proud of her so far, I've got a feeling I got a new fishing buddy for life... Sorry Parker, your seat's been taken....... rofl

Grinner post, for sure!

Keep her engaged and ENJOY every minute of the ride, Keith. It WILL be well worth it!

Oh yeah... and sorry, Paker.

Well done. Those are great pictures. Good job by her claiming a cup holder too. Looks like she's got it figured out.

Fixed that for you.

Eh, already got kicked off of Robbo and Rockin' Randy's boat. Not too sure why Doc allows me on his boat. Probably only a matter of time until Tom gives me the boot as well. Might as well add me to Keith's No Boat List too.

Way to get that springer, Maddy!!!!! I'll have to start taking some lessons from you!

Ahhh, I was kidding Paker.... All things considering and the current water temps, my prediction is the best March we've seen in 10 years.... I'd say if you got this Sunday or the next off I'd get your butt down here and get you one....

Oh and you can fix my computer again... Please!
