Ate breakfast rounded up my three boys while my wife and daughter went shopping .I picked up another boy my wife watches in the afternoon .We headed to the pond instead of the lake due to me wanting to show the kid some catching instead of sitting and waiting and maybe not catching .Stopped at Fred's bait and tackle picked up some crickets and some pond worms and headed down to the pond.I rigged up 6 rods for the kids so I'd have two ready when they got tangles..Well it turned out they did not need them they all fished like pros.

it started off with one of these

getting ready for another one....

The hook set ...This dude is a future Bassmaster winner.

My oldest left the girls alone and helped me out quite a bit.
Image

My six year old was not bored!!!! and did not complain one time in the 4 hrs we fished
Image

As you can see from the cooler shot I worked my butt off.I felt like a deckhand on a party boat baiting hooks and taking off fish.

the finished product...

I had to clean the fish outside this time.. My wife was not having me clean em in the house again..All in all there is not a thing I can complain about this week.. :thumbup:
