Why It’s A Good Thing To Take A Kid Fishing

steve-smallmouth-bassI've probably talked about it too often but taking a kid fishing can be one of the best things you can do for your kids and even for your relationship with them.

The days I took my son Stephen fishing were about the happiest times I've had with Steve because other than fishing I spent my time working, too much actually. Now he's all grown up and moved thousands of miles away which will make it tough to do any fishing together now.

The image top left is a day we took the float tubes to fish for smallmouth bass and it's the first smallie Steve ever caught. It was a perfect day and no one else was around, just me and my bud.

I was on my Joy of Fishing Facebook page this morning going through my friends to see what kinds of adventures they're having.

I wish I had been able to use a camera when Stephen was with me trout fishing from my canoe off the Shepody road 20 some years ago. We had so much fun and got caught in the rain storm of the century.

Okay maybe it wasn't the rain storm of the century but it was the hardest rain my little buddy had ever been out in, especially in a canoe. But it was raining so hard that all we could do was laugh and try to get back to the Samurai before we sank. Good thing we brought extra dry clothes, just in case we fell in the water.

For Steve's first day of fishing we went on a picnic next to a trout stream on one of my favourite scenic roads next to Fundy Park. Between eating and exploring he managed to catch his first brook trout.

I can hardly wait for the day he gives us a grandchild we can take fishing together.

Last year’s Big Brothers Fun Fishing Tournament was enjoyed by young and old as members of the Saint John Muskie Club shared their time on the water with kids. My friend and fishing buddy Casey sent me a couple of images of one young fella having the time of his life.

This young fella had a great time but he wasn’t quite ready to hold that first bass, however by the second bass he was ready, willing and able.

Just Received My First Muskie Lures

Posted: 21 Mar 2013 04:21 AM PDT

muskie luresI am so excited about fishing New Brunswick again this year but then again I'm excited every year I get to go fishing, however this year it's my my year to fish for muskie and striper.

A few weeks ago I opened my fishing NB Facebook page and saw a message from fishing friend Ron who was selling a bunch of his muskie lures and gave me the first chance to snap them up and I did.

I was going to pick them up at the first muskie meeting of the year but that didn't happen as my computer died Saturday morning. It would have been my first muskie meeting too. So glad Casey was going because he picked my lures up and dropped them off at my house where I ripped them open like a kid at Christmas.

I thought they would fit in a couple of my Plano boxes but they were a tad too big for the ones I have. Okay way too big. I'll be heading out before fishing starts to pick up a couple of Mann sized Plano boxes. They will fit perfectly in the tackle bag Casey gave me the last time he was in town.

I'm sure Jenny was pleased that I cleared off the kitchen table to layout my musky lures so I could take a few pictures of them.

Yesterday morning I had zero muskie lures, today I have 22 awesome musky lures. Yesterday morning I was eager for fishing season to begin, today I'm itching to try these new lures out. I guess I just have to dream about it for the next few weeks.

Watch the waters as you'll likely see me and my float tube fishing muskie and stripers. That would be a funny site to see me being dragged from Fredericton to Saint John in a float tube being pulled by a big ole striper.

Now I'm off to eBay to see what other muskie lures I can find. I'd like to find some nice muskie spinner baits as they are one of my favourites to fish.
