Man, that is the way it goes. At least you have the memories, and every time the storie is told you will tell it with a smile. Go get some more and post the pictures of the kids holding there fish!.....

Well, guess what happens? My son pulls in a 10" crappie on a bobber and 1/16 oz yellow maribou jig. His drag was going like crazy and I thought he had hooked up on some twigs, which we were mostly pulling in on one spot. I take his rod and adjust the drag and we both start reeling it in and I see something splash water.
Biggest fish the little guy has caught yet.
Then a few minutes later, my wife reels in an 8" crappie. She says, "Why didn't you bring the camera?"
:rolleyes:
Take your kids hunting and fishing, and you won't be hunting your kids
