she had her two rods and during the day fished with one and practiced casting with the other, she is getting better, good enough to catch more than me.

Looks like someone is a natural, well done that girl.
Any chance she can pass me a few tips on how to catch?

Sometimes its the young uns that can show us a thing or two when they put their mind to it. Well done she looks like she really enjoyed the day by the pics and she aint afraid to handle them.

i know wot you mean, i tuck my 4 year old out the other day since i had some bait left off the night b4 . she was using a old kids rod i got from a boot sale its so bendy that i couldnt put a weight any bigger then a 1oz on in case it snapped , we where out for a hour and she got 3 coilies , where i blanked, it was her first ever trip and her face just lighted up it was just magic . she now wants me to get her a new rod from the shop coz shes seen a pink kids one in the shop.

i bought my duaghter a spinning rod for the pollock and catching 3 to 4 lb fish her rod wasnt holding up, so i bought the pink lady luck bass rod and reel with a bit cut off the butt for her to use. now she has two diawa supercast x 12foot for the beach. she has the gear and can catch the fish. i have all the gear and catch hee haw.

Good to see the fish are still around. I am originally from Coleraine myself but am living in Guildford past 6yrs. I do get home a few times a year and fish with my best mate "NEWTY". You probably know him if you shopped in the Great outdoors.
Its also great to see the young ones catching and i notice she is wearing a floatation suit, good lad.
Not home till June so leave some for me!!
