I couldn't be more proud!!!!
« on: Feb 05, 2017, 02:37 PM »
So today I got out with my 6 year old daughter who is loving the ice fishing. We have made it a every Sunday tradition and waking her up at 5am isn't a struggle in fact she usually asks if it's time to go fishing lol. I feel so lucky to be able to pass on my knowledge and fun of ice fishing with my daughter and today she showed me up big time

[/[URL=http://s1244.photobucket.com/user/mattmaxham1311/media/Mobile%20Uploads/A4BAE93F-8E7A-4F80-926F-E0EDC075AFE9_zpsoris8q9z.jpg.html][/[URL=http://s1244.photobucket.com/user/mattmaxham1311/media/Mobile%20Uploads/E5267B23-BF4B-4A17-8C50-4A7C7BE3D6F6_zpsq85uts4o.jpg.html]

It measured in at 14" and I didn't have a scale but I'd say 1.5 lb easy

Wait there's ice????

Congratulations. I wish my daughter was interested. I've tried repeatedly. She's not at all interested. Might have to bribe her. Good for you. I can see why your proud of her. Excellent work.

Way to get her out enjoying the ice time...  I wasn't ice fishing when mine were that young, wish I had.

The flag tripping story is great...  thanks for the pics and the story... cherish those Sundays always.

That is awesome.  I am lucky that 2 of my kids love the adventure that is ice fishing.

Believe it or not Hawkeye Holden 10 and SL Victoria 14 are sleeping in that sled in my tent.  We had to get up at 1:30 am to be on the ice at 2:30 am at the Sabattus Pike derby.  Once we were setup they decided it was time for a little sleep. 😉
