My week at GEM kids fishing camp! 7/6-10

[Cyberfish]

I got to spend a week up fishing with the GEM kids. fishing was great, lots of bass, crappies, rockbass, and pike were willing to make a kids day! Most of the fish were caught on plastic worms, tubes, and flukes, some kids tried some live bait but soon found plastics worked even better. We had some pretty rowdy kids this week, Dave did a great job keeping order so i could get down to the business of getting kids on the best bite. Mitch came and helped out too when dave had to leave a day early.

I have tons of pics up at the GEM kids blog

here are a couple

Three men and a pike!

kisha was just jigging for sunfish over the side of the boat, I was watching when the big bass came from under the boat and ate the plastic crappie minnow she was using! I told her to lift the rod and hold on! the battle was successful!

You do good things with those kids. You're great for taking them out and putting smiles on their faces.
