Willow Beach Trout Trip - TheWhizzle - 05-31-2010
Hit the Beach with the Whizzle Family a few days ago (the Whizzle Fam is growing! Got a bun in the oven here...).
We started the day trolling big trout plugs around, but 5 year old kids think trolling is "BoRiNg!" so we hit the beach for some spin fishing.
The first fish of the day was landed by my daughter, and I told her that you have to kiss the first fish of the day. She was reluctant, but the Jimmy Houston in her came out-

I was next up to bat-

Then my oh-so-pregnant wife -

We continued to catch fish pretty much non stop for a while. It was really a wide open bite for us. I got a fish on just about every cast for an hour or more, and my daughter was doing her share of catching too.

And they were all very athletic, hard-fighting fish. Every single fish we caught went airborne during the fight.

I lost count, but we easily landed 25 or more trout, and lost quite a few that came unbuttoned during the fight.
I kept 8 for the table and they were delicious.
I've got my daughter and wife hooked on fishing- Now I get to work on the new addition! (lets hope for a boy!)

[cool]Good going on the trout. They put up a nice fight on light tackle. Good eats also. Looks like a great family outing.

Nice report. I'd like to get down to Willow sometime. Nice Jimmy Houston reference, lol. I like to sing the Bill Dance theme when fishing is slow. Way to incorporate the family in the best pastime ever.
