My eldest daughter has a slightly greater interest in making lures and fishing in general. So after a recent fishing session where one of her models was the talk of the trip, my five year old asked me, "Dad can I make my own lure?" So with pen and paper in hand she traced around a couple of old plastic lures (mainly because they were pink) and settled on a design she wanted to run with after she made a few more alterations to the sketch. Together we made half a dozen so she could help air brush a few different colours for Christmas presents and keep a few herself. The end result was what she called "Nosidam" (her name spelt backwards) She applied the base colours herself and I helped a little with the patterns. The Yellow & Purple with lightning bolt is for her Storm supporting Poppy! So after only gluing the bibs in yesterday, we set off to Coolmunda Dam this morning to give them a swim, not even sure if they would swim true. After asking the stupid question of which colour to tie on, she chose the Hot Pink & Purple model. Well they not only swum true, but dove to approx. 22 feet and also smoked her older sisters "Niltiac" landing all half dozen Yella's on the troll. To say she was happy was an understatement! Needless to say her sister was sick of working the landing net and was ready for a swim quicker than normal. Now I just have to talk my little one into letting me use her Pink "Nosidam" when she isn't with! |

That is unreal! Trying to get my daughter to take more of an interest in fishing - this might be just the ticket!
