kingofthesteelhead Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 Took my dad out to Sibbald Point on Lake Simcoe today.He is 90 years old and still determined to get out on the ice once in a while. We caught lots of fish between 7-9 inches long with a few 10's mixed in. I'm sure he enjoyed his birthday as much as I did taking him out.It is tough getting him to leave as we were out from 830am until 230pm.Couldn't ask for a nicer day!
Rattletrap2 Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 Lucky you! Man, to be 90 and still getting out fishing is great.
crappieperchhunter Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 Good job Ted. I'm always amazed at your old man. Last time I was on the ice with him he got mad at me for cutting holes for him and then he grabbed the hand auger from me and cut a few more I know you have heard me say this a 1,000 times. But I'll be happy to still be on the green side of the lawn when I'm his age. But to be able to still do what he does, that's something. Glad you guys had a good day. I'm sure a day on the ice was just about the best birthday present anybody could have given him.
aplumma Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 Good of you all getting out and fishin. I wish your Dad Happy Birthday and many more. Art
John Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 Good on you.......a very happy 90th to your Dad please wish him many, many more.
superdad Posted February 16, 2010 Report Posted February 16, 2010 Fishing with your Dad, especially at 90 is SUPER. My 90 year old Dad and Iwere talking yesterday about the opening of the walleye season on May1st and he's really looking forward to fishing with me and his grandson on May 1st. It's a real treat to continue the fishing together - we started 63 years ago - seems like yesterday and I can remember the first fish Cheers David Delcloo aka Superdad

I was amazed to watch him fish up at Pigeon Lake a couple of years ago at his age then... Haven't seen you or him since...CPH sez you got a new crappie spot at your trailer... Cheers...Beans
