Freshwater Fishing in Southern California
San Diego has something for everyone from sight seeing to camping. Even fishermen and women can enjoy San Diego with over twenty lakes and reservoirs as well as ocean piers, almost every type of fish can be caught. This article offers five of the more well known lakes around San Diego County. Two excellent and well thought out web sites to help the fisherman find out where they really want to go and what to expect during their trip are www.sdfish.com and www.californiafishingonline.com. So grab the rod and tackle, wrangle up the bait and let’s explore five of San Diego’s highest rated fishing destinations: Lake Dixon: Located up in Escondido with seventy acres of fishing. This lake is open year around and offers night fishing during the summer months. The fees range from $3 to $5 and offers shore fishing. Boat rentals are available as well as a bait shop on the premises. Lake El Capitan aka El Capitan Reservoir: Over fifteen hundred acres of fishing and picnicking. The lake is open Friday through Sunday and offers twenty-two miles of shoreline along with a maximum water depth of one hundred ninety-seven. There are no concession stands available,
but there are vending machines. The staff of El Capitan sells bait and fishing licenses and a day use permit is sold at the entrance. Lake Hodges: Located in Del Mar with over twelve hundred acres. This lake offers boat rentals as well as allowing use of private boats with only paying a small launch fee. There are no concession stands available and the staff handles the permit purchase at the docks available. Lower Otay Lake: Down in the South Bay location of San Diego, this lake gives the fisherman over twelve hundred acres of fishing, both from the shore and by boat. The lake has a concession stand located in the picnic grounds. This is one of the few lakes that allow dogs (leashed) to enjoy a day with their family as long they are kept fifty feet away from the water. Boat rentals and permits are sold be the lake staff. If wishing to use a private boat, the lake does charge a launch fee. Lake Miramar: This lake is open ten months a year (only closed in October and November). With one hundred and sixty-two acres, shore fishing and boat fishing abound. Boat rentals are available on the weekends only and private boats are welcome at any time. The concession stand
sells permit and bait (including tackle) and also sells basic items. There are barbeque sites available in the picnic area. All of these lakes are stocked with a variety of fish including but not limited to large mouth bass, rainbow trout, catfish and crappie. Each site does have a limit to the amount of fish that can be caught and each are clearly listed where the permits are sold. Irvine Lake Irvine Lake is a reservoir in Orange County, California, United States. The lake is on Santiago Creek, located in Silverado, California, east of the city of Irvine and close to Irvine Regional Park. The lake is formed by the Santiago Dam at the lake’s north end, which was built between 1929 and 1931, and the lake was originally called the Santiago Reservoir. The dam
was built by the Irvine Company (the private developers of the city of Irvine) and the Serrano Irrigation District (now called the Serrano Water District); it is now administered jointly by the Serrano Water District and the Irvine Ranch Water District. The lake provides drinking water to Villa Park and some parts of Orange, and provides supplementary irrigation water to neighbouring ranches. Access to the lake is via Santiago Canyon Road, the road leading from Orange to Silverado. The Cleveland National Forest is on the northeast side of the lake. Stocked with largemouth bass, catfish, trout and crappie, the lake fishery opened to the public in 1941. The land around the lake is owned by the Irvine Company, which leases the fishing, boating, and camping concessions to SWD Recreation Inc.

NASCAR ’s Sprint Cup and Xfinity series
Photo and story by William Casper NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series continues racing out west with a trip to Fontana, California’s Auto Club Speedway, home of the Auto Club 400, took place Friday through Sunday, March 20th through 22nd. They’re joined on the schedule by the stars of the Xfinity Series, who competed in the Drive4Clots.com 300 on Saturday. Friday’s fans gathered to watch the practice sessions and qualifying for both the Sprint Cup and Xfinity series drivers, this is the most important day next to race day. In these sessions, the crew chief and his team experiment with the cars at the track where the race will be held. In these test sessions, the crew chief and his team experiment with the cars, finding just the right setup that will allow a fast qualifying time on

that particular track. The process involves a driver completing one or sometimes two laps around an empty track. The whole idea is to go as fast as possible without losing control of the car or crashing, and at most tracks, qualifying speeds are often far greater than the highest speeds attained during the race. After a trying weekend in Atlanta NASCAR has amended the Friday schedules for the next three race weekends: Las Vegas, Phoenix and Fontana. Friday’s opening practice for Sprint Cup teams originally scheduled to be 1 hour, 25 minutes has been shortened by 10 minutes at all three tracks. Qualifying for the three events will now take place five minutes later than previously scheduled. The changes will allow an extra 15 minutes for teams to prepare their cars for inspection and for officials to complete the inspection process.

The first of 2 races to have kicked off the weekend with the Drive4Clots. com 300 NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Auto Club Speedway and although Erik Jones roared to the top of the speed charts, qualifying No. 1 for Saturday afternoon’s race it was Kevin Harvick that remained hot with a dominating victory. Driving for JR Motorsports, Harvick won his second XFINITY race of the season in just three starts, leading 100 of 150 laps at the 2-mile Southern California oval. Finishing second was Brendan Gaughan in a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, followed by Erik Jones in a Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota, and Harvick’s teammate, 2014 series champion Chase Elliott. Sundays NASCAR Sprint Cup race was nothing short of exciting with Brad Keselowski roaring past Kurt Busch on the final lap and held off streaking Kevin Harvick to win
at Fontana on Sunday, earning his first NASCAR victory of the season in a wild finish. Harvick fell just short of a three-race West Coast sweep, but finished second to extend his remarkable streak of top-two Sprint Cup finishes to eight races dating to last season. Richard Petty holds the NASCAR record with 11 straight in 1975. Keselowski led only one lap in his Team Penske Ford, but capitalized on two late restarts to a green-white-checkered finish. California fans will have to wait until the 2016 season to see their favorite drivers once again go for the win. If you would like to experience NASCAR firsthand, ticket and camping information is available on the speedway web site: www. autoclubspeedway.com or by calling the speedway at 1-800-944-RACE (7223)

Simple steps to paint like a pro T h e d i ff e r e n c e b e t w e e n a professional paint job and a do-ityourself job that looks like a pro painted it is surprisingly simple. As the old adage goes, the devil’s in the details. If you want that professional look while maintaining your DIY pride - and checkbook - take the time and effort to pay attention to often overlooked details. Step-by-step prep Prepping is vital so make sure to cover, tape and protect. That way you’ll be able to place furniture and accents where you want them, and not where you need them to cover the paint spill in the corner. This will give the space a polished look you’ll enjoy. Move furniture and other items out of the room if at all possible. If not, be sure to completely cover and secure the items to fend off spills and spatters. Opt for a canvas drop cloth instead of a one-time plastic covering. Canvas is extremely durable and will lie flat, preventing any unforeseen tripping or rips that may expose flooring and furniture. Chances are this will not be the last painting project you do so it’s well worth the investment. Use painter’s tape to protect woodwork like door frames, window
frames and moldings, and remove electric fixture covers and plates. Don’t forget the door knobs or cabinet pulls. Use small plastic bags to cover them and secure with painter’s tape if you can’t remove them entirely. After you’ve read the newspaper, save a few sections to use during the painting process. Should you run into any issues of stray paint, use the absorbent newspaper to soak up unwanted drops. Finally, gather rollers, brushes, paint and trays, and place them on their own drop cloth in an easily accessible area. Focus on the details A wide open wall is a blank canvas to DIY painters. But before you let the color flow, follow the painting process practiced by professionals. To start, look for areas that, if omitted, will surely draw negative attention and make your room look unfinished. These are items such as baseboards, trim, chair rails, molding and doors, as well as the interior of door and window frames. These finishing touches tend to be on a smaller scale, so you’ll want to use a compact tool that gives you more control. Try a mini paint roller such as Purdy’s Wire Mini-Roller. The 4-inch and 6 1/2-inch sizes allow you

to cover those hard-toreach or small areas with a smooth look. Wrap up the room It is best to paint any trim before tackling the walls. Start with the baseboards and paint around the room in one direction, paying careful attention not to miss any areas. Next, paint any window trim, door trim and crown molding. Be sure to remove painter’s tape before the paint dries for a cleaner line. When you’re ready for the walls, start painting from the top and work your way down the wall. As you get close to where your ceiling meets the wall or where the wall meets trim, take your time, and don’t feel the need to paint right up to the edge with a large roller. This is another area where a mini- rollers work well. Before putting all your furniture back and paint cans away, take one last look around. Perhaps you have fixtures or furniture that could use a touch-up. You can take this moment
to carry your color scheme throughout the room and add new life to mirrors or picture frames. You can paint like a pro. From project start to finish, take the time to prep and focus on the details. And when your friends and family ask for the name and number of the contractor you used, it’s up to you what you share.

Prepping tips for spring outdoor projects Soon, winter will be winding down and homeowners will start planning and prepping for - a variety of outdoor projects for spring. From cleaning, repairing or replacing decks, to creating raised beds for veggies and flowers, now is the time to start gearing up for those spring projects. Cleaning up Start with spring cleaning existing structures. Take a weekend to clean decks, gazebos and pergolas of dirt, debris, mold and mildew. For structures made of naturally durable Western Red Cedar, a broom, garden sprayer and hose, plus a little bleach are all you need. Sweep winter debris such as twigs and leaves from decks, taking care to clean between planks on horizontal
surfaces. This facilitates airflow and drainage, and can help prevent a buildup of moisture when spring showers arrive. Next, use a garden sprayer to apply a-mild oxygen bleach solution to kill mold and mildew. Be sure to leave the bleach solution on the wood surface for approximately 30 minutes, and then rinse with water. Never use a pressure washer as it can damage the wood. Maintenance and repair Carefully inspect outdoor structures for wear and tear. While Western Red Cedar contains natural preservatives that make the wood durable, all outdoor structures require annual care, including those made of pressure-treated lumber or composites. Check planks, beams and boards for cracking, warping or rough spots and repair accordingly. Replace damaged wood, and be sure to examine hardware to ensure it’s working properly and free of rust. New projects If you’ve always dreamed about lounging on a lovely deck on a summer afternoon, or savoring a spring morning beneath the shade of a decorative pergola, now’s the time
to start planning the project. A great deck is the showpiece of an inspired backyard, and spring is a prime time to add one. To ensure your deck affords you the most value and enjoyment, consider using an online deck planner to help you envision your deck before you begin building. As gardening grows in popularity, you might consider adding raised planting beds to your landscaping. Raised beds not only make caring for and harvesting your garden easier no bending required - they can also function as a decorative enhancement to your outdoor environment. The material you choose will influence the longevity, beauty and enjoyment of your structure, so carefully consider your options before deciding. “Many homeowners choose Western Red Cedar for its beauty and natural durability,” says Paul Mackie, western area manager, Western Red Cedar Lumber Association, or “Mr. Cedar” as he is known in the industry. “It has a deep, rich luster that other woods and man-made materials just can’t match. Plus, it’s a greener choice because it’s renewable and recyclable - unlike composites - and
doesn’t require chemical treatment as non-durable wood species do. It’s naturally rot and insect resistant, and you can stain it or leave it natural, depending on your preference.” The green qualities and durability of Western Red Cedar make it a great choice for virtually any outdoor structure - including those popular wooden playsets that begin appearing like wildflowers in backyards across the country every spring. Whatever project you’re dreaming of this spring - from building a new deck, pergola, or planting beds to refurbishing an existing outdoor structure or palyset - careful planning, cleaning, maintenance and the right materials can ensure your project adds value and beauty to your home environment.
Reclaiming California’s Diversity
HAPPY GRAPES
By David White If you ask a typical wine consumer to imagine a California red, they’ll almost certainly think of Cabernet Sauvignon. If you ask that same consumer to imagine a white, they’ll almost certainly think of Chardonnay. This is understandable. More than 500,000 acres of California farmland are dedicated to wine grapes, and Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay are the most widely planted. More than a quarter of the state’s red wine grape plantings are Cabernet Sauvignon. And more than half of all white wine grape plantings are Chardonnay. Once upon a time, however, California’s landscape was much more diverse. And thanks to a group of renegade vintners, California is reclaiming this diversity -- and producing more and more wines that are reminiscent of a bygone era.
The dominance of Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay partly traces back to 1976. That year, a British wine merchant named Steven Spurrier organized a wine competition in Paris, where he pitted California’s best Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon against the best wines that France had to offer. Until then, few critics took California seriously. And at that tasting, everyone assumed that France would win. But with both whites and reds, California came out on top. That competition -- now known as the “Judgment of Paris” -- transformed California’s wine industry. The red, produced by Warren Winiarski at Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars, helped accelerate Robert Mondavi’s efforts to tout California’s wines as being on par with Europe’s best offerings. The white, produced by Mike Grgich at Chateau Montelena, forced the world to take a serious look at California Chardonnay. When KendallJackson produced a Chardonnay with just a hint of sweetness a few years later, the variety’s popularity would skyrocket with consumers. Over the subsequent two decades, those who marketed wine pushed other varietal wines like Merlot, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. But Cabernet and Chardonnay were cemented at the top.
For most of California’s winegrowing history, however, vineyards were planted chaotically with inexpensive, workhorse grapes. Americans didn’t care about varieties and drank simple table. While most were consumed locally, products like Gallo’s Hearty Burgundy and Almaden’s Mountain Chablis approximated these wines and had national distribution. Today, several California vintners are rediscovering these ancient vineyards and recognizing their potential. This effort is led by Tegan Passalacqua of Turley Wine Cellars and Morgan Twain-Peterson of Bedrock Wine Co., two young producers who have earned a reputation for crafting delicious wines from old vineyards. Three years ago, the two men helped launched the Historic Vineyard Society, a nonprofit created to catalog, protect, and promote these properties. Turley’s Library Vineyard Petite Sirah is a great example of the wines this group celebrates. The Library Vineyard was planted between 1880 and 1920 directly behind the St. Helena Public Library in Napa Valley. Although planted primarily to Petite Sirah, the small vineyard is comprised of more than a dozen different varieties, including red grapes like Syrah, Carignan, Grenache, and Zinfandel and white grapes like Muscadelle and Green Hungarian.
From this vineyard, Passalacqua makes a delightful field blend that speaks clearly of its origin. Bedrock’s Compagni Portis white is another great example. Sourced from a Sonoma vineyard planted in 1954, the wine is a blend of Gewurtzraminer, Trousseau Gris, Riesling, and a handful of unusual grapes that are almost extinct. It’s exotic, exceptionally aromatic, and totally unique. Passalacqua and Twain-Peterson are hardly alone. California producers like Carlisle, Arnot-Roberts, Forlorn Hope, and Wind Gap are also creating high quality wines from historic properties. While some make field blends, others produce single varietal wines from nearly forgotten grapes in almost-forgotten vineyards. In late February, a group of wine writers from across the country gathered in California for a conference. During a discussion about Napa Valley’s “unexpected” wines, New York Times wine critic Eric Asimov reminded attendees of California’s “history of diversity” with Turley’s Library Vineyard Petite Sirah. Wines like this are still just asterisks, of course. They’re jewels of an earlier time. But they show that there’s more to California than Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Napa In Newport Raises $680,000 for Boys With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Photos by: Shando Venneau, Shanda Photographic Annette Wolford with Ruben Flores and Irene Krinsky. Nearly 300 guests enjoyed the fun and flavor of Napa Valley wineries as they gathered at the Balboa Bay Resort with a common goal of saving the lives of thousands of boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The Napa in Newport Wine Auction raised more than $680,000 to support CureDuchenne’s mission to find a cure for Duchenne, a progressive musclewasting disease that leaves boys in wheelchairs by their mid-teens and claiming their lives by their mid-20s. Napa in Newport attendees were treated to a spectacular wine tasting presented by 29 of Napa Valley’s most prestigious wineries and curated by Master Sommelier Michael Jordan, one of only 15 people in the world to hold both Master Sommelier and Certified Wine Educator diplomas. Chuck and Anne McMinn, owners of Vineyard 29, were the honorary event co-chairs, and renowned Chef David Slay of the celebrated Park Ave Restaurant personally designed the 4-course menu for the evening. Unique items, rarely available wines and custom, once-in-a-lifetime Napa Valley experiences highlighted the silent and live auction.

We did love him but we also planned a bold attack to hit this disease with everything we had. Not just for Hawken but for all the boys around the world with Duchenne,” said Debra Miller. The live auction was quite exciting as there were about eleven different high ticketed items up for grabs. Of those that stood out were: One of a Kind Vintner’s Premier Collection – this is a collection of more than 30 large format bottles from Napa’s finest Vintners – yes, these are the magnum bottles! This package went for $24,000! Another standout was the U.S. Navy Aircraft Carrier Adventure – four lucky folks are flying onto a United States Navy Aircraft carrier off the coast of California somewhere to spend 24 hours immersed in their world and the best part? This experience went twice at $55,000 each! CureDuchenne-funded 7 research projects and those have advanced into human clinical trials, providing a ray of hope for Duchenne families around the world. CureDuchenne funded early research in three companies, Prosensa (recently acquired by BioMarin), Sarepta Therapeutics and PTC Therapeutics, each of these biotech companies will be applying for FDA approval for their Duchenne drugs this year. These drugs could be the first Theresa Jordan and Michael Barry Nilson and Luci Nilson. therapies ever approved for this deadly disease and the folks at this event Jordan couldn’t be more excited, they were ecstatic!

OC BREW & BITES FESTIVAL TO RAISE FUNDS AND AWARENESS FOR FOOD banks Community Action Partnership of Orange County (CAPOC), operating the OC Food Bank, is hosting a brews and bites festival in the Farmers Park at the Anaheim Packing House on Saturday, April 11th from 1-5pm to end poverty in Orange County. The ‘OC Brews and Bites Music Fest’ will feature more than 30 craft beers from regional breweries paired with delicious bites from a dozen local restaurants that boast craft brewing on tap. In addition, live folk style music will take stage during the festival with performances by Cubensis and The Outriders. CAPOC is holding a community celebration of its 50th anniversary with this kick-off event bringing the community together to commemorate its roots of community action as Orange County’s designated antipoverty fighter. “We are working to bring prosperity and economic life back to low-income communities. We noticed that Orange County was becoming a center for locally grown businesses that help to create jobs and return life to distressed communities. The Craft brew and gastropubs are leading the way to build business neighborhoods
such as downtown Santa Ana and Anaheim that are ushering a new renaissance for the community,” said Alan Woo, CAPOC Director of Planning and Fund Development. “By supporting this event, you are not only enjoying some of the best beer and bites in the county, but you are helping to provides services to the poor and hungry.” Funds raised from the event will help the OC Food Bank buy thousands of pounds of fresh produce for food insecure families and individuals
who cannot afford to purchase fresh produce or nutritious meals. The recent effects of the California water drought have dwindled the amount of fresh produce donations to the OC Food Bank impacting the Food Bank’s ability to serve the growing number of food insecure in Orange County. “Providing fresh produce is an essential part of our Farm2Families program ensuring that young children and families receive essential nutrition as part of their consistent diet,” said Mark
Lowry, CAPOC Food Bank Director. “As the Brew City of Southern California, we are proud to host the brews and bites event in our city,” said Anaheim Mayor Tom Tait. “Here’s a chance to come to Anaheim to enjoy local craft beer and delicious food, all while helping those in need. I would say that’s a win, win, win!” Tickets for the OC Brew and Bites Music Fest are $50 and are available at www.ocfoodbank.org/ brewsandbites.

Baroque Music Festival to Celebrate 35th Season with ‘Bach Fest’ Five concerts, three venues, one special week in Corona del Mar, Calif., June 21-28 Offering performances that have consistently drawn critical acclaim, the Baroque Music Festival will celebrate its 35th year with five concerts, June 21-28, at venues in and around Corona del Mar. One of Orange County’s most enjoyable summer music events, this year’s Baroque Music Festival will feature an all star line up of Baroque musicians and singers dedicated to the era’s preeminent composer, Johann Sebastian Bach. World renowned Baroque violinist Elizabeth Blumenstock serves as the festival’s artistic director, bringing her eloquent performing talents as well as her passion for Baroque music. Known for her insightful commentary during the concerts, she also provides astute program notes that add rich context to the experience. Now in her fifth year as artistic d i r e c t o r, B l u m e n s t o c k h a s programmed this season’s “Bach Fest” with both familiar and little known works. Most pieces are performed on period instruments or authentic reproductions in three intimate venues, similar to the concert environments of the Baroque era. Blumenstock, who plays a 17th century Guarneri violin, will be joined by soloists Kathryn Adduci on trumpet, Judith Linsenberg on recorder, Christopher Matthews on flute, Kathryn Montoya on oboe, Ian Pritchard on the organ and harpsichord, and other guest artists. Vocal soloists and the Festival Orchestra will round out the ensemble. The festival continues its tradition of inviting concertgoers to arrive early for each performance to enjoy Baroque music performed al fresco by the South Coast Brass, beginning 45 minutes before curtain time. Another festival custom features a reception after each performance,
where musicians and audience members come together for good conversation and refreshment. The festival offers a subscription for all five concerts at $275 that provides priority seating at each event and a private post concert dinner following the Festival Finale on Sunday, June 28. Subscriptions and individual tickets ($30 to $45) may be purchased at the festival website, www.bmf-cdm.org, or by calling (949) 760-7887. Subscription tickets will be mailed to subscribers in early May, followed by single tickets in June.

Festival Quick Facts: BAROQUE MUSIC FESTIVAL, CORONA DEL MAR Started in 1981 by California State University, Fullerton music professor Burton Karson and art historian Irmeli Desenberg, the Baroque Music Festival, Corona del Mar has become an Orange County cultural institution. Acclaimed instrumentalists and vocal soloists come together for the annual festival, performing primarily on period instruments in intimate settings for five concerts offered over an eight day period in June. Concertgoers have described the performances as “rapturous” and “riveting”; music reviewers from the Los Angeles Times, Orange County Register and other local publications have consistently given them glowing reviews. The Festival’s all volunteer Board of Directors is committed to bringing high quality Baroque music to Corona del Mar every summer. ARTI S TI C D IRE C TOR ELIZABETH BLUMENSTOCK
Baroque violinist Elizabeth Blumenstock is widely admired as an artist of compelling verve and eloquence, and her technical sparkle and enthusiasm bring an infectious passion to the Baroque Music Festival, Corona del Mar. Since 1981, she has assumed the roles of soloist, concertmaster and leader with the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra. She has also performed throughout the U.S. and abroad, with the Boston and Berkeley Early Music Festivals, Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival and the Finnish Oulunsalo Soi Festival, among others. Her love of chamber music has involved her in California’s finest periodinstrument ensembles, including Musica Pacifica, Live Oak Baroque and the Galax Quartet. She is a regular concertmaster with American Bach Soloists, the Goettingen Handel Festspielorchester and Il Complesso Barocco orchestra, recording over 100 CDs with these ensembles, and serves as an adjunct faculty member at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. Her 1660 Andrea Guarneri violin is on loan from the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra Period Instrument Trust. TICKETS A five concert Festival subscription is $275, assuring premium priority seating and a private post concert dinner with the musicians in the Fellowship Hall of St. Mark Presbyterian Church after the final performance. As one subscriber remarked, “The concerts alone were well worth the cost, but dining with the artists was priceless!” Single tickets are $30 for Monday night, $45 each for Wednesday and Friday nights, and $40 each for the Sunday afternoons. Festival subscriptions as well as single tickets may be ordered from the Festival website, www.bmf-cdm.org, or by calling (949) 760-7887.

Fishing with Your Kids The Best Way to Have an Enjoyable Experience Fishing By Carl Kolchak Fishing with your kids should be a fun family experience, but it often can turn into a tedious chore. Tangled lines, a lack of action, and the suggestion of going fishing with your kids can turn from excited looks into bored faces in a hurry. Trying to keep up, especially if you have more than two children, can run a parent ragged, as he or she tries to make sure lines are in the water and everybody is having a good time. Here are some tips to make sure that fishing with your kids is a worthwhile and enjoyable adventure. First and foremost, you need to catch fish. Nothing creates the potential for boredom more than a fishing pole that just sits there with no fish biting! Pretty soon the children are wondering why they are there to begin with and fishing with your kids goes from a great idea to a very bad one in a matter of a few minutes. There are many things you can do to increase your odds of catching fish, giving the kids the excitement that will keep their interest. Go fishing with the kids in the early morning or late afternoon; these are the peak times for most species of fish to bite. During the summer, after supper is the optimal time to gather the equipment and head to the local fishing spot. If the kids are too young to bait their own hooks and cast out, you need to forget about doing any fishing yourself and concentrate on their needs. It’s no fun for a kid to stand around and watch you fish. Proper equipment is crucial to success when fishing with your kids. Do not bother with those “kiddie” poles that cannot stand up to the rigors of actual fishing. An inexpensive spinning reel and rod will do the trick; you aren’t going after world records, you simply want to catch fish. A spinning reel is the easiest type for a youngster to learn to cast with. If they are old enough to cast, make sure you put them in a spot way from trees and brush that will snag your child’s line and hook. Find an open area along the river bank or shore of the pond. Nothing is more frustrating while fishing than having to break your line, tie another hook on, rebait it and cast again, only to get caught up in the same branch or log! If you are fishing with your kids at a small pond, there are two species of fish that you can usually targetbullheads and pumpkinseeds. All you need for bait are night crawlers, which you can catch yourself on any damp
spring or early summer evening. Get the children involved in this, by letting them go out and catch them for themselves. All they need is a flashlight and a bit of coaching. Catching the worms will be almost as much fun as catching the fish. If you need to buy your bait, many convenience stores actually sell worms during the fishing season. Night crawlers can be kept in a container in your refrigerator for weeks; only be sure that everyone knows what is in that container to avoid unwanted surprises. Once you are at the pond, space the kids out so they will have their own areas to fish and avoid tangling their lines. You do not need to use floats or bobs. Have a number four snelled hook tied to the line with a pair of split shots secured about eighteen inches up from the hook. A snelled hook is a hook that comes already attached to a short piece of monofilament with a loop tied at the end. You can tie it right to your line; the number of the hook, in this case a number four, is an indicator of the hook’s size. The split shot will give you or your child added weight on the line, allowing the line to be cast further. Hook the night crawler on and cast out. Place a forked stick into the ground and lean the pole against it. When the fish bite, your child will see the line start to move. It will either begin to go out as the fish runs with the bait or there will be a distinct jerking motion that your child can
easily detect as the end of the rod as it snaps back and forth. Now is when you have your child pick up the rod and try to set the hook. Teach them not to simply reel the line in, but to give the line a good, quick yank in an attempt to hook the fish. They will be able to tell in an instant if the fish is on by the tension and feel of the line. Have them reel in, but not too fast, always being sure not to let the line go slack. Pumpkinseeds, a common pond dweller, are small in size, but their streamlined shape allows them to put up a great fight for their stature. They will zigzag to and fro in the water until your child can land them. They have sharp spines on their back fins that need to be avoided. It is important for your child to learn how to properly handle a fish once it has been caught, so as to be able to release it unharmed. Show your child how to hold the fish and remove the hook, teaching them not to be afraid of doing this. Until your child is old enough to handle this alone, you will be doing the removing, as well as putting on the worm and casting out. Bullhead will bite one right after another on a good day, and they can keep you running from child to child as they land them or lose them. Let your child either catch the fish or be responsible for it getting away, as this will help them learn what they did right or wrong. They will get a feel for when the fish are biting, when to set the hook, and how fast to reel in. Eventually, they will be able to hold the pole and
know when the fish are biting, without having to lean it against the stick. If you are going to be fishing with your kids at a river, add more split shots so you can cast out further. Rivers are more unpredictable in that there are many more species of fish that can be caught; trout, bass, white and yellow perch, suckers, pumpkinseed, and carp are commonly caught on night crawlers here in the Northeast. The potential is there for your kid to hook some decent sized fish; avoid the temptation to jump in and land the “big one”. Fishing with your kids at a river can be made even more fun by assigning each species of fish a point value. The more desirable the fish, such as a bass or trout, the higher number it is assigned. Have your kids keep track of how many points they have accumulated, with some sort of reward or prize going to the winner. Teach them to be sure to leave the pond shore or riverbank the way they found it, litter and garbage free. If the fish are not biting, a pair of binoculars can come in handy as there is bound to be something of interest around the water, whether it’s a kingfisher, a mallard, or a muskrat. Fishing with your kids can be great fun, enhanced by their learning to appreciate the outdoors and actually catching fish. Put yourself and your children in a situation where they have the best chance to succeed, and you and they will look forward to spending this time together long after they have grown up!
