I love this one cos' she really kicked my butt that day! (Which was the case on many occasions.) Unfortunately she has lost interest. Even to this day if I find myself in a rut I'll try & coax her to go fish with me. Seems like she always did well.

My daughter's too young to fish herself but she enjoys relaxing when I fish from shore.

Here is my son Aaron with his grandfather as a five year old in 1997, and (inset) as a 15 year old muskie hunter! He also shoots bigger deer than his dad...ugh. CopterJohn

My youngest is 11. Here's Nathan with a nice pike near Detroit Lakes. He has been using baitcaster since he was three. He shot his first rooster last weekend.

And now we flash back to 1981... Copter John with a 8.3 largemouth.

Caught from a vintage Bass Tracker boat and a fat rap. Remember it like yesterday.

absolute tank.

I have a picture of me from fishing opener when i was probably about 5 or 6. I'm holding up a 15-20 pound pike that my dad caught that day that was as tall as I was. I'll see if I can find it.

ah, couldn't find the pike picture, but I've got another decent one.

My little boy, it's a moment I am sure he won't remember all that well, but it is one I will never forget.

What a HAWG!!!!! Killer hat as well. It seems that all of my older hats (circa late 80's) seem to be creased in the middle of the bill. Sign of the times?
