Need recommendations for my first fishing trip with the boys
Taking my 6 and 8 year old fishing for the first time next month. I grew up fishing but haven't gone in years. Want to make sure this is a good experience for them so they actually enjoy it instead of getting bored and frustrated. Thinking of doing a local lake with a guide for maybe 4 hours. Should I get them their own rods or have them share one? Any tips for keeping kids engaged when the fish aren't biting? Also what snacks and gear do I actually need? Never done this parent thing while fishing.
Nice, getting back into it with your kids is special. Make sure they're comfortable with the gear and don't rush anything. The real win is just having them out there with you.
