snag Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) Greetings, Please see below: Meant to post this in September. oops This is my niece with her first pike. I took her on a multi-dockside fishing trip to reconnect (hadn't seen her for awhile) SHE WAS SOOOOO EXCITED! It was a great day. She still brings it up every time we talk now. She is a natural at fishing. She landed and released the pike with minimal help from me. A crowd quickly assembled on the dock while she worked it. Watch the video, the pike freaks and wacks my camera within mm of the water! VIDEO: Total crowd pleaser. There's even more people back there. The other kids there thought she was a goddess for catching a pike! Here is a small bass caught after dinner aaaaaaand the release She's caught some lunker bass since the age of 3! Here's a mini pike. No she's not smokin' it's a sucker. love the glasses! She thought they were magic water glasses! Filler, Poor pic of musky skull but you can see why they hurt other critters buh bye S. Edited January 31, 2008 by SNAG
ccmtcanada Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Priceless...just priceless Grant. She handled that fish like a pro! She had a good coach as well. Looks like your camera got slimed too...LOL. Ok...fess up now....you started catching more pike AFTER fishing with her....I think we know who taught who in the art of pike fishing....
Headhunter Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 After looking at her pics and the video, I concur... she is a goddess! Absolute sweetie! You must be very proud! HH

Rich Clemens Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 I agree with you Cliff. My first thought as well with a nice job of handling the fish. Cool vid Snag ... thanks for posting.
setomonkey Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 Kids having fun fishing is a great post, even if it's a few months late. Congrats to your niece, looks like you've got a good fishing buddy there... Mike
kennyman Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 She's really cute. She was very cool in the video, almost nonchalant. I think the glasses suit her . Nice job uncle Snag! Maybe she'll follow in your footsteps. Next you can teach her to dump her bike and cell phone in the water . Sorry, had to throw that in there .
Joey Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 Cool video Grant. Thanks. Did you keep the musky skeleton? Joey
snag Posted February 4, 2008 Author Report Posted February 4, 2008 Thanks everyone. Posts with kids rule because the kids tend to have an unconditional joy for fishing. It rekindles my memories of excitement. She's really cute. She was very cool in the video, almost nonchalant. I think the glasses suit her . Nice job uncle Snag! Maybe she'll follow in your footsteps. Next you can teach her to dump her bike and cell phone in the water . Sorry, had to throw that in there . Yeah, I know I have a few more lessons in me! Cool video Grant. Thanks. Did you keep the musky skeleton? Joey No, It was to big!
lunkerbasshunter Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 wow that was awesome! And to have it on video is amazing! Cheers!
