Kids and fishing - share some of your favorite pics!
« on: December 13, 2013, 11:23:57 AM »
I love fishing.  But I REALLY love hearing a laugh and giggle from a little one as they catch their first fish.  Or their 100th fish.  Having 8 kids, I am privaledged to hear that sort of thing often  :tup:

Here are some of my kids and my favorite fishing pics of them:

Ethan 'battling' a large salmon.  2 or 3 years old here.



Ross Lake camping and fishing trip:


Sammich break:


Rufus Woods winter camping and fishing:


Fun at the local pond:


Pass Lake brown trout action:


Fall trout fishing:


Me and my 'little brother' from the Big Brother's program about 10 years ago:


Always 'helping' me clean my fish:


Friends from church - first fishing trip.  First salmon.


His brother's turn:


My son and I at an alpine lake:


Local pond crappie:




Nice one:


Another good one:


Blake Island:


Beautiful Lake:



My son fighting a salmon with his friend getting ready to net it:

Great pictures.  We have 2 bio kids as well as a third from foster care.  It is not an easy road.  I tip my hat.  I will look for pictures to post.  Great job.

Love it!  My favorite pics are those where the rod is "taco'd" from a big fish on the other end and the kid is grinning from ear to ear or even cringing from the 'epic' struggle and battle  :tup:
