My sister in law and her daughter Nicole are in the city visiting us so I took them down to Travers for a couple of days camping and fishing. We went out the second day and she caught her first fish ever after about an hour trying! It was a walleye about 42 cm long. She was pumped!! She dropped her bait back down and 5 minutes later, her rod is doubled over and line is peeeling off (I had adjusted the drag loose on purpose!)! After a minute or so, I looked down and could see the fish coming up and it was a good one!!! Netted the fish and weighed it on Berkley digital scale at 6.6 lbs and 69 cm long! Pretty good for a 7 year old and her second fish ever!! My tournament partner might just get his notice soon!!:D
