				 |  My Daughter's first Bass 
			
			My Daughter and I went out to a local pond this afternoon for a little quality time.  We had earlier gone to Wally World and the bait monkey told her that she wanted a heddon top water popper. She used the always famous cast, set your pole down, and feed the ducks technique. After about an ten minutes, she managed to hook up to one, but couldn't maintain enough tension to land it. I was so proud that this simply made her more determined. It took a few more casts but she finally landed this one. Finally count, Her 1, me 0. She has no issue catching them, but touching them is out of the question.

			That is an awesome sight. Start her out holding some of those world famous Cali swimbaits, and then sneak a bass in there on her.

			That is cool Cass, it brings some memories of about 25 yrs ago when Bandit caught his first fish.
