Had a friend do a three generation trip with a sleeper for friday and saturday night. 3 kids, 2 dads, one grandfather, and myself. Setup a small spread of tip-ups on saturday to get more lines in the water as well.
Thankfully they cleaned up the language with kids around. There wasn’t much pretty to say about the fishing. We had a couple of flashers and marked very, very few fish. I think I marked three or four fish in ten hours. Got one to trigger and that’s when I took an hour for hole hopping in the afternoon. The next door house didn’t have a single bite from friday through 8pm saturday.
Still a good weekend for me. Playing cards and hearing old military stories was completely worth it. However I fish regularly. A bit tough for the kids and for grandpa who is getting on a bit in years.
Anyone do better?
