Ahh, fishing as a kid. So much fun. Watching the bobber like a hawk. Seeing the fish swim under the boat. Pulling up your huge sunny or crappie, all squiggly on the line. What's not to like?! Of course, now that you're an adult you realize that the "grown-up" with you had to put the worm on the hook, dodge your rod as you swung it about, counterbalance you as you leaned out of the boat to see what was in the water, and took every 2-inch fish off the line for you before throwing it back in the water. What seemed like an all day adventure for you as a kid was most likely 10 minute affair in actuality. But this is something we gladly do to instill a love of the outdoors, and fishing in particular, in our kids.
This weekend you have the opportunity to do just that. Saturday, April 29th, 2011, come to the
Adult and Kids Crappie Tournament on Lake Minnetonka. The tournament runs from 6:00 am to 12:00 pm. Weigh-in will be at Maynard's in Excelsior from 12:00 pm to 1:30 pm. There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places along with other prizes. The $7 entry fee can be paid at weigh-in.
Take a kid fishing and have some fun!
