[QUOTE="Mmac52280, post: 2556076, member: 120230"] Long time ago, after getting separated from the ex, I wasn't allowed to take my twins anywhere at first. They were 5 and so wanted to learn about fishing like their older sister. I found an 18-20" deep, 9 foot diameter, wading pool. I knew a farmer who had several ponds who raised fish for locals ponds and lakes. I explained my situation, he came and looked, then brought me 18 nice sized bluegills. I added a submersible pond pump to keep the water aerated. He also brought a dozen big crawdads to keep it clean. I can still remember the day, taking them to the backyard, handing each a pole, which did give them cause to question my sanity...until that first bobber disappeared...what a day. Couple years ago, I was asked to make them something for Christmas. I crafted "Keepsake boxes" with hidden locks to open them. Locks are made as part of the box and have to be manipulated to open. Inside, on the lids, I varnished in pictures from that day. That's my neighbors boat in the background. They never forget the first time fishing. [/QUOTE]
