My wife and daughter (who's about to be 7) are showing interest in going this year. Looks like I'm getting kicked out of my 2man and back to sitting out in the elements. As long as I can keep them warm and getting a few bites we should be good. Good tips so far.
You just have to remember it is about the kids when they are young. Let them take the flags, Let them use the electronics. If they are catching fish and having fun then nothing else matters. If they are bored then you might as well go home since they will not make it fun no more for you.
