Fishing Together – Preserve the Moment and the Catch + #PreserveTheMomentContest

I remember waking up while it was still dark out holding my little fishing pole and tackle box while waiting for my dad to pack the lunches for the day. I stood by the front door anxiously awaiting our trip to the lake for a day of fishing. I couldn’t wait to see what I was going to catch.

I started taking both of them fishing with me at a young age and it’s one of their favorite things to do today. While they didn’t really know what they were doing, they enjoyed trying and just holding their poles splashing in the water. Today, my son is my favorite fishing buddy. He loves fishing just as much as I do and my daughter is starting to enjoy just as much. If you’re thinking of taking your kids fishing, these 6 tips will help make your trip enjoyable for everyone.
