Tips From Mom: Fishing With Kids!

Tips From Mom: Fishing With Kids!

With the release of my new picture book: Fishing With Mom, I sat down with my lovely wife, Sue, and she wanted to share some of her tips for taking your kids fishing! 

Fishing can be a great bonding opportunity for families to spend quality time together outdoors and learn about the creatures underwater.
Here are some tips for taking your family out fishing: 

1. Choose a Kid-Friendly Location: Find places with easy access and good opportunities for catching smaller fish. Ponds, lakes, or fishing spots with a lot of action can keep kids engaged. Avoid locations with strong currents or deep water.

2. Keep It Simple: Use basic, kid-friendly gear that's easy for kids to handle. A simple rod and reel combo, along with easy-to-use bait like worms or small lures, can make the experience more enjoyable. 

3. Be Patient and Prepare for DistractionsKids can get bored or distracted, so be prepared with snacks, drinks, and activities to keep them engaged. Patience is key—fishing with kids is as much about spending quality time together as it is about fishing! 

4. Prioritize Safety: Ensure everyone wears life jackets if you're on a boat or near deep water. Teach them basic fishing safety rules, like not casting near others and handling hooks carefully. 

5. Make It Fun and Educational: Turn the outing into a learning experience. Teach kids about different types of fish and the environment. 

Check out my book Fishing With Mom on my website for a fun and engaging story about Lucky Luke, his sister and their mom as they head out for a fun day on the lake! This story is perfect for emergent readers and read-aloud.
