Well me and my buddy went to Lake Jordan yesterday and I left my rods in his boat.  This morning it is just too pretty to be inside so my wife my little girl and myself decided to get out.  We went to my buddys house to get my rods.  After picking them up me and my wife suggested going to a local pond and catching a fish for my little girl (13 month) to see.  Pulled up at the pond grabbed the spinning rig with a shakey head and casted.  After about 5-6 casts the little one is getting anxious so I tell her momma to bring her to me.  I squat down so she can sit on my knee and as I shake she turns the handle a few seconds later the bite    expecting a dink i tell her to hold on.  I set the hook and immediately know its a good fish.  Not being able to fight the fish and hold on to her I call for momma.  Fought the fish for a few seconds thinking of how to get this fish in from the bank and with 10lb. fluro.  The fish jumped twice just to let me know how big it was.  With momma freaking out i knew i had to land this fish.  Get it to the bank and she starts stripping drag.  Next thing I know pop she was gone.  The fish was easily 7+  I felt so bad I couldnt get that fish in.  She did get to see a dink though but it just didnt equal out. 

btw she liked the slimy fish  ;D
