Kat, my 5 year old, has been bugging me to take her on the Missouri river to catch some catfish. I occasionally take her along to catch bait, and her job is to sort the small shad from the big shad, toss the small ones back and put the bait in the livewell. but she decided it's time to graduate to bigger fish. so I took her out on this chilly, windy day and she managed to catch the first fish, a 7lb channel cat. a short while later another fish on but she didn't want to reel it in, she wanted me to catch one. so I did and it was a blue about 15lbs. I took her picture, she took my picture, and her fish came home for supper tonight! tomorrow her and I are headed to the woods to scout turkeys and disc up a food plot. and she wants to drive the tractor. good times!

Thanks, Travis! and she knows no life vest, no boat ride. she never complains about it because she has been wearing one since her first summer when I toted her around the river in a punkin seat!

Kat and I appreciate all your comments, she loves to look at all the pictures you guys post of big crappies, and she was thrilled when I showed her that I posted our trip today. in the morning, she will probably make me read all the replies to her, Lol!

Looks like she knows how to handle that big cat. Good job Dad.
