Who caught the fish?

[Springbuck1]

My daughter with cerebral palsy can hold a pole in one hand, and se the hook.  She can't bait, cast, crank her reel handle, or even really see her line or bobber.

Anything that bites and we bring in while she holds the pole, SHE caught.

Good on you for getting her out there!

  She's a hoot, but the logistics can be tough now that she's growing up.  She has caught rainbow trout, green sunfish, bluegills, hybrid greengills, wipers, LMB, SMB, bullheads, carp, and chubs.  Got a life list on her wall. 

  I used to tow her around in a kayak at Mantua while I waded by jamming her old car seat into the homemade kayak, but she outgrew the car seat and life vests, and getting her, her wheelchair, the car-seat, kayak, etc shuttled back and forth from the parking lot anywhere........well, she weighs 115 lbs now and all that, and nobody else in the family likes fishing.
