Teach Your Child to Fish
Focus on easy to catch species
For a child, the thrill of feeling the tug on the line is more important than what is doing the tugging. Fish for easy to catch fish such as sunfish or crappie.
Fish locally
Find a fishing hole near your home. You are more likely to go back with your child more often if the lake is nearby. CDFW and other agencies stock urban ponds and lakes.
Focus on the child
Make sure the fishing trip is about your child. Leave the radio, newspaper, and video games at home. Focus on personal interactions, time relaxing together and the solitude of fishing.
