Wonderful! I'm jealous not having a daughter/daughters to share the outdoors with.
My youngest son took his first bear up here one evening a few years ago. I knew he wasn't well but he wouldn't say. Took the shot and 15 seconds later was out cold. Mono.

Thanks, guys.
I dig your perspective, Osky, thanks for that.

Osky Same here. I tried to get my 2 boys into camping and hunting but failed. They never did like it. Then they discovered those killers of all things outdoors - soccer and daily hot showers. I'm 71 and have a lot of knowledge I'd like to pass on. The last couple of years I've got involved with our church's Trail Life troop trying to teach 11 to 15 year old a few things I've learned before I'm to old to get out myself.

Sock I’ve been a guide most of my life and one of the groups I handle in northern Canada fly ins is a group of great older guys. Three years ago one brought his granddaughter. Typically bored but polite 13 year old. I got her involved in everything to get her mind busy, taught her to handle a rod, fish, and run her own boat. She has boated 48” pike, countless trophy walleye, and last summer a 44lb lake trout. She is everywhere helping everyone in camp these days on top of becoming a very good guide. Getting to be a good cook as well. She will be 16 this summer and I sure look forward to seeing her in her boat. If you message me your email I’d enjoy sending you her picture with the trout. Couldn’t be more proud if she were My own. Osky

A hearty congratulations to beautiful young ladies and their father/grandfather. Great work with the muzzleloaders and great groceries for the freezer.
