Pickles Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) I asked “Charlie” my granddaughter what she would like to do for her birthday on Monday. “Go fishing with you grandad, with my pink rod” she said (My kinda gal). Don’t know if she’ll want to do this in 8 years when she’s 16, so strike while the iron’s hot. Because of the howling wind, we went float fishing in our top dam near the house for silver perch using corn and bread. We caught 11 fish in less than 1/2 an hour, before she lost interest and went off to chase lambs around the paddock and dip-netting for tadpoles with Grandma (Mrs Pickles) A great day to spend an 8th birthday.

Yowie Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Good effort there Bob, and the grand daughter has a smiley face to go with it. Probably would be many fishos that would like a farm dam with fish in it, me included. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, there's every chance they could turn out like @JonD's kids and if that's the case, they'll be taking YOU out instead of the other way around! Sounds like a great day with the grand daughter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a great day with the grand daughter! Thats pretty rare, they either take their buddies or go alone most of the time. My daughter really likes being out on her own most of the time, she loves the challenge of catch and landing big fish in her own boat without assistance. Looked like a cracking session Pickles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickles Posted September 23, 2021 Author Share Posted September 23, 2021 Jon, I’d love to get out or get your daughter to take me on a charter when this “silly season” is over. (Love to get one of those South coast monster Kingies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
