This is my favorite picture of my daughter after she landed a 4 lb. LMB on a small neighborhood retention pond using a slip bobber with a minnow and 4 lb. mono.
She was seven at the time and squealed with delight. The first thing she said after she landed it was "Oh my gosh daddy it looks looks like a sea monster!"
She also got an honorable mention with her picture shown on Bass Pro Shops "Next Generation" TV show. She got a t'shirt. ball cap, CD and a $25 gift card to BPS. Very Cool stuff. I was a very proud.
The look on her face says it all.

Too cute. My kids ask me why I take so many photos and I tell them because when I get old and loose my mind you guys will still be able to remember these things for me. Great picture.

Yeah I think she was a little nervous when she was holding it. Her expression kinda says "woahh!"

Yeah I did Marc but I loved it so much I had to post it again. To me that was the best trophy I could have ever had. I was very proud of her. As far as the BP gift card, not a chance she made me take her there so she could shop for guess what..... clothes! You can take the girl outta of the city but she still has to look good!"

When she get's a little older and starts posting how she's whipping pappa's but we'll make that her avatar...
It is a great picture and should be in the hall of fame.
