Title: Hume Lake. No fish just memories
Post by: Big Tim on July 29, 2015, 02:20:32 AM
Took my grandson Colton fishing recently and realized that Grandpa's have no rules. No fish, but let the lad gear up and walk in the water and make some noise. Soon we will give him a sinker, then hooks  ;D

My wife and I got a nostalgic chuckle out of those pics, thanks.

And protect that skin! (I'm sure you did).  My daughter has skin like that still, and she is 23.

Good work Grandpa.

this remained me when my daughters were that young, when I started to put sinker and hooks on their rods I always used the smaller hook for saltwater I could find, and a 1/4oz sinker, and a tab of bait on their disney wmart rods, the idea was to catch just sardines and small fishes, many times they caught some big triggerfish 5-6lb and big spottie bass 3-4lb.
figthing a big triggerfish on 6lb line and toy rod was like fighting a marlin.


great pictures.
