[quote SkunkedAgain]Do your kids take after their parents in fishing interest? My daughter used to until she hit twelve and seemed to lose all interest. Too bad she was a lot better at it than her dad. Well glad you got a nice day out. Later J[/quote]
[#0000FF]When TubeBabe and I got married I was the single father of three and she brought two more younguns to the fambly. All the kids from our combined tribe had been brought up to love fishing. But as they matured and entered the adult world of reality...marriage, bills, kids, health problems, etc...they have mostly let fishing fall by the wayside.
About the only exception is my son Steve (TubeN2 on BFT). He and my grandson, in California, still love fishing but no longer get to go as much as they used to. LIFE happens.
I used to take the kids on both group trips and on individual "daddy-kid" trips. Those are still big topics of conversation at family get-togethers. And I have put a lot of them into short stories that the kids and grandkids treasure. Here's one.
