I took my daughter fishing for the first time on Saturday June 8th and she caught her first fish! We anchored up on a wingdam threw out a nightcrawler and wammo 
next thing I know she is reeling in this sheephead and giggling like crazy. Here is the photo:
I sure was/am one proud dad! 
Hey Steve ,
I know exactly what you mean… I mean i am not a dad or anything…but i got to witness my nephew austin (fireflicks son) catch that smallie topwater theres nothin better then watchin a kid have so much fun in the outdoors……. Those sheephead are sure dependable arent they though…. 
Enjoy these times!! She will grow up way faster than you would like!
Cool pic Steve!
Looks like she is pretty proud to be out there with Dad!
Little EFN Staffer in the making!
What a cutie! I am sure you will have many more pictures!!! It looks like she likes it!

What a cute girl. She must get her looks from her mother.
Just wondering if you both were wearing matching outfits. LOL
Steve Great photo
Hougs, congratulations to you both. What a great looking fishing partner you have. Hope you have a hard time keeping her out of the boat from now on. Just in time for fathers day too.

Absolutely a thrill that can’t be truly described until you’ve simply done it! I’ve been there for a lot of firsts with my boys and in those moments, you no longer wonder why we’re all here! Special indeed and I share in your celebration!
You know, it looks like it was a special day for that sheepy as well……………how many fish ever get a good look at Cookie Monster or Big Bird? LOL! Gotta love it! 
Say Buddy,
The little Gal looks like a” KEEPER” to me ! These memories will never fade. My daughter, even though she is 25, She still loves to go fishing with DAD.” Quality time” not quanity ! So cool, So cool !!

Keep a tight line !!!
Way to go “little hougie”!!! This is a day you both will always remember. Start them young and they will grow up loving to fish. Had my almost 10 year old grandaughter out Thursday along with her 1 and 2 year old sisters and mom too for a boat ride to get them use to the boat. Next time the rods and reels will be out. The oldest grandaughter wanted to fish so she stayed an extra day so she could catch some walleyes. Its great to see kids get excited about catching fish. Looks like you have yourself a fishing partner for the future FTR Get together tournaments there Hougie.
