myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602) 5 years ago

Fishing season opens this week and my grandson is thrilled! He has already gotten his pole out and has been practicing his casting skills. The weather isn't great, getting cold again, so we will have to wait another week or more before we can hit the rivers and lakes to do some serious fishing.

School vacation starts the week of April 16th, he may have to wait until then to cast a line. Hopefull this is the last of the snow and warm weather will be upon us.

I think fishing is a great activity for kids! It teaches them patience, for one thing. I can still remember going fishing with a boyfriend and some guy was standing there saying "godda*n" fish! LOL. A definite no-no. I'm glad your grandson is learning to fish, that's great! Maybe he'll let you eat some of them, too!

Happy fishing! I am getting tips from you on how to entertain grandkids in case my kids will give me one. That will be several years from now although I am dreaming about that too. Some of my friends are enjoying their grandkids.

the first time i was able to try fishing was two years ago. i was already 25 years old. a bit too late for me, huh? but i did have fun with my dad and other people. we went to a far away place where water is fresh and the weather is great. although i never caught any fish at all, i say, it was great to be just there, sitting and waiting for some fish to be tricked with my bait. i guess the whole idea of being witht he people i love is best.


myLot reputation of 98/100. maryannemax (10395)  5 years ago

and by the way, i hope the boy gets to have so much fun and that he'll be able to catch loads of fish, too!


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  5 years ago

I am hoping to have a fish fry with the bounty they catch!

Too bad I live so far away, otherwise I'd happen to drop by for the fish fry LOL I love fish

You know...I might have to go get some fishing poles for my kids for this summer.
I remember spending my summers as a kid fishing too.
But my partner says it is no fun to fish off the side of a lake or river.
I do not agree. Why can't a person just sit down on the edge of the water to fish?


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  5 years ago

That is how we always did it. You bring along a bag lunch and have a picnic. The kids always loved it.


myLot reputation of 99/100. rsmith512 (1444)  5 years ago

Ahh...wait, I have been "fishing".
It wasn't to catch fish though.
We had a little field trip in Elementary up in Kansas were we went to a lake and caught some crawdads.
I thought that it was very fun, and I think that it would be just as fun or funner with fish!
I think that you can sit down on the edge of a lake or river and have fun and spend some time together. :)

Ice fishing season just closed here last weekend. The ice on the lake is not even rotting or melting yet. It will be awhile before we get to start some real fishing again. It's fun to share an activity with a child. I hope your weather is perfect for fishing buy the time school vacation starts.

I hope he has a great fishing season. Great to know that someone still does fishing. Do you have some favorite spots? We wish for a pond or mini lake to stock and then we can fish to keep the numbers in bounds. Good luck with this fishing and hoping there will be some pictures.

My brother has a river that runs beside his house and it is a nice quiet place to fish.

Ya fishing is so much fun. We are also planing to go for fishing when the weather get warm a little. In our place also the cold has came again. We don't have lake near by for fishing. We have to drive atleast two hour to a lake. We take lots of food and do grillig there and its lots of fun. It's like a very nie picnic.
Hope your grandson and your family have a good fishing time and get lots of fish:).


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElusiveButterfly (9602)  5 years ago

We have plenty of lakes and rivers around here. It is still way too cold to venture out and stand around a cold body of water.

My son is an avid fisherman too!!!! He gets so excited when the season starts up, although he technically finds some how to fish all year long or just about! Isn't it a wonderful thing to have them do? Something that you know will keep them busy, out of trouble and isn't going to cost a ton of money (for the most part LOL).

As kids we did a lot of fishing it's a good peaceful passtime and I love eating fish. I hope your grandson catches the biggest fish of all and has a wonderful time. I love children so much. My grandchildren are the world to me. I love them even when they're having a rotten day !!!

Oh I bet that your grandson is excited that is great and we as grandparents feel for them when we see them being happy with their own little lives. Oh well I do hope that the weather will improve and before you know it that your grandson will be able to go fishing and enjoy himself and bring home some fish.
