Our Young Anglers
One of the bright spots at Lake Wilson are all the kids. Our future fishermen. When we return to the boat launch ramp each afternoon, there is usually group of young anglers to greet us. Smiling faces ask about what we caught.... tell us who reported catching what and where..... and share with us their own catch reports from there at the fishing park.
One 10 year old is always the first to race down to the boat. He always offers to help hold the rope or hook up the boat after it's driven on to the trailer. I'll usually offer to give him any leftover live bait, or ask if he has enough fish hooks. His help with the boat is always welcome. My son, Chris, has made the time to take him fishing a time or two.... and is impressed with his angling skill.
Yesterday I was handed some photographs... so I would like to introduce you to 10 year old Dougie and some of his friends. As you can see, if you have questions about fishing Lake Wilson, the person to see is Dougie.....
