Take out the kids! - Page 2 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

My niece began fishing around age two and so did my nephew. Most of their early pictures of them fishing are on film. They love fishing and catching fish. Actually my niece brought in a stripe marlin on vacation in costa rica, with uncles help of course! This pic is about a year old or so and is of a day of fishing Catalina,first bonito and then this bass during lunch time. These kids know how to fish.........

Great pics! And a great reminder to spend as much time as possible building memories with our kids... the time goes by so quickly!

A few of Niko right before we moved from Oahu. Key was starting with the little ones (but A LOT of 'em) inshore to give him a taste and then move to bigger ones... which you risk not catching. Kids need to catch early on, regardless of size/specie, to keep the interest... just the way it is! Niko is ready for his first ever LJ trip... soon!

I have two kids, 6 and 10, and we have blast fishing NPH from our Ocean Two XL. I sit in the middle seat and there is a seat for each of them stern and bow. The nice thing about this yak, unlike other tandems, is that when I am by myself I sit in the middle and it handles great.

What's even better is when they catch one themselves...keep it up, soon the kids will outfish you.

Nice post

I saw from another post that you were selling your kayak. From your post you must be in the Orange Co area. I have 2 prowler 13s, a Hobie Revo and a Mini-X and I live in Costa Mesa. You are welcome to borrow one of my kayaks any time your feel the need to go kayak fishing. I hope that your son is doing well. I will keep him in my prayers.

Not a kayak, but took my seven year old, Allison, on her 1st overnight trip with my bro and her granddad, 83. With the crews help she had a blast bringing in a couple tuna. She's now hooked on fishing for life!! Made my Dad's day as well.

Everyone's photos submitted were terrific! These kids are too cute with their huge smiles and their catch! I especially enjoy seeing little girls get hooked on fishing, we need more women yak-fishers! My son, Wade, also loves fishing. He has even caught a WSB by himself!! His mom almost died of pride that day!
