That was kimberlee's battle cry. So, this afternoon Pat and I took the grandkid fishing. We launched at Fatboy's, and armed with a pint of bugs, proceeded to the Galv. Ship Channel to do a little bottom fishing.

I really enjoyed the afternoon and naturally Kimberlee kicked our behinds. She caught 4 croaker and 1 spec. Me, well let's just say I drove the boat!

Before the day was over, Kimberlee was catching her bait and baiting her own hook. Made a few nice casts too.

She's ready to go back in the morning!

1 - 8 year old Kimberlee with her game face on.
2 - Kimberlee's first ever spec. It measured 14 7/8" (released).
3 - Look out Jan. There's another Fishin'Chick in town!
4 - Sunset at Tiki Island

One more pic...

Ha Ha, Kim, this smile is for you.

Here is one more pic. This poor chap was minding his own business fishing when someone dumped some fish carcasses nearby. Next thing you know, he has gone and caught a seagull. I took the picture while he was trying to figure out how to release. It appeared to me he did a good job and the bird was soon on it's way.

Lol!

The old "Catch and Release" dilemma? (spelling Jan?) LOL!

 

[Reel Woman]

Rex,

The ladies tell me those spots will be mighty difficult to fish this fall for you guys. All they have been able to snag is a bunch of old thong fish lately???

BTW, what are thong fish?

What a cutie! And a baitcaster, to boot! That takes a whole new level of patience for a little one.

Glad you guys had a good time....
