Today while transporting the family around I asked who wanted to go fishing sometime this weekend - THREE little voices in great harmony sang out "Me" - so I guess I get to take everyone out. It gets a little crowded on the boat, but the kids usually have a fun time.
The only thing that keeps their interest is catching panfish. So what should I look for to catch a few panfish these days? I'm in southern Wisconsin, and the water last weekend at one lake was 73 degrees, 80 in the shallow bays. I was thinking of starting in about 10 feet of water off main points in the weeds - but I'm not sure The weed harvesters have been all over in the shallow bays lately - even took out my "honey hole" last weekend. We'll probably just soak some crawlers, but if leeches or minnows are better, I can get some of those too.
So I ask the guys who have been fishing longer than me - what's the winning combination to keep the kiddos interested and catching some fish?
Thanks for any help,
Will
