My son recently finished his Baymaster 180 (here: http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=24184.0 )
Of course this prompted my daughter to want to do one as well  :)
I gave her a Delmar 285 and she went to work.
She's not as into this kind of stuff as much so she mostly just wanted a basic R&R.
The time spent together was what it's all about though!

Awesome job Chad, nothing better. Once the fishing improves a bit lets get together and take those 2 to Goleta pier and get them some action! Sheridan

Chad, she's cute as a button! And color-coordinated with the grip! Tell the truth, that's why she got that reel to work on, isn't it? :)

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

Great Chad, memories for a life time, Sheridan, it would be great if you two could take them fishing, and get some photos as they catch something, stay safe cheers Don, love that smile, cute.

Way to go Chad. She is a cutie.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

The purple knob hooked her for sure! Nice to see fishing can be a family affair.

I keep wanting to take my 8 year old son fishing... Trouble is his 6 yr old sister insists that she has to go too.   I can handle either one, but both at the same time is too much for fishing.   I took them both under an inlet bridge last summer and ended up pretty much casting for them nonstop. :P  It didn't help that we were using baitcaster reels.  I'm going to have to take the plunge somehow and just let them cast.  Wish me luck!

The other conflict is that my wife likes to fish, but if I take her with the kids it will be madness and she won't enjoy it.

interesting Joe, just do it, value time, & you may all learn something, good luck, stay safe, cheers Don.
