A little humble pie....

[Deitz Dittrich]

My brother(7 years younger, which still puts him at 27 years old)has just started to enjoy bass fishing, or fishing for that fact.... So in thelast year, I have taken him under my wing and taught him a few things when our sched matched up. Which at the time is about every other thursday.

Today, I took him deep fishing....I told him on our way to the lake...."please bro, dont worry if you do not get any fish today.. fishing deep is not easy... just try and learn as much as you can and we will talk about it on the way home."....

Well... I was the good guide(not intensionally).. and he boated the first 5 fish out of 17 feet of water....I only managed 2 fish out of the depth and he finished with I think 8-9?... I would like to think I was being the good guide and bro.. but, I wasn't!

Thank goodness it was only about a 20 min ride home!!

Some days, its not as hard, or is as hard as you think it is!

Isn't that the way it always is. So what did he teach YOU about fishing deep. I hope he made you sign a $1 bill.

When you're guiding them around in your boat it's always nice to let them catch more fish.... Not!!

Deitz, I seem to have had the same problem. I took my Grandson Ty (9 years old)up to Canada last week and we were Muskie fishing. He caught a 43", a 38" and lost a 46" at the boat. Plus he caught a 35" Northern.

I got skunked.. I loved every minute of it!

That just goes to show that even the sun shines on a dogs "behind" once in a while.

[Deitz Dittrich]

he may have caught the most fish.. but I did get the biggest.

[ocf]

tell him the limit is 2 so then you get the best overall weight

[DeathRoe]

"limit" and "bass" should not even be in the same sentence together. Let em go n grow

[Deitz Dittrich]

Death Roe- I can catch a limmit of fish, but catch and release them as I catch them?.. I think saying caught a limmit of fish is saying caught 6 fish... not saying they kept 6 fish.

[ocf]

I meant to say 2 best fish sry

[FRESHWATER PETIE]

Sounds like you and your brother are having alot of fun on the water.

I am Deitz's Little bro and I have to say that I only outfished him becasue he knows how to find fish. Deitz knows how to give a rookie like me he best chance to catch fish. When I am in a boat by myself of or with another Lozer like me I am am still lost to finding fish. But with Deitz I learn so much each time we Go out My head could explode. I am Bias, seeing that he is my Bro and all, but each time in the boat is a great challange and opertunity to grow in my ability to fish. It is also a blast. I look forward to my next chance to outfish Deitz again.
