    If you’ve never tried to chaperone 5 year old twin boys it is a challenge. I decided to get them out today after some crappies and Jonas managed his first one a dandy 12 incher. The crappies are just starting now on Lake Waubesa and many muskies are in the shallows still. This 41 incher hit a roadrunner and was quite a battle on a 4lb test mono. I dug a 2 inch aluminum sliver out of its head. Looked like a peice of a beer can or something. Picture taken by a 5 year old boy. Thomas also got his first large mouth bass. Those anglers that had crappie minnows managed more fish than anyone else I saw. the water was 58 degrees and is more murky than normal. Tight lines.

    Nice! My little guy is only 3months but I cant wait to get him fishing. 12″ I dont think I caught a crappie like that until much older than 5.

    Heck yes, that is the way to get them involved in the sport. Dad loves fishing so it is inevitable that they will too.
