Beauty and the Beast

[Syppy]

So I finally had the time to get together and take the youngest of my kids out on the boat with me.  The older two have had many turns, but I've been putting off taking the 3 year old out on the little boat.

Turns out, she's the best one to take out.  She was mostly content to eat crackers and sing songs to me.  Took turns with the binoculars. The fishing wasn't all that great, but oh boy did we have fun. Pictured below is Beauty and Beast.  I'll let you figure out which one is which

So we got a chance to go out again, this time with a dedicated "camerawoman".  We found out the boat isn't long enough for REALLY good pictures and video, but you can gather the idea =)

And her very first fish!

All in all, a good day

Sippi, what kind of rod is that little beauty using? I am looking thinking it may be a spongebob rod??? my daughter's 1st rod was a barbie w/ a matching tacklebox.

Great pics and great memories.

I've never caught a catfish before. Sweet catch! I bet it felt like a whale on that little pole. Great job, i still remember what it's like to go out fishing with my dad and i'm almost 23!

It's a Spongebob Squarepants pole that my buddy bought her for her birthday.  Has real fishing line and drag and everything. Originally it comes with a little "Plankton" character for just playing around with it, but I couldn't find it.  So I just tied on a hook some sinkers and a worm.  I figured with the small hook she'd catch some bluegill or something but when it started taking drag almost as fast as she was reeling in I realized it was something bigger.
