Fishing Through a Child’s Eyes

“Children never forget the first fish they caught, that silvery element of life that first fired their imagination.”

— Duncan Bruce / GM

If you’ve been fishing for most of your life, you might’ve forgotten what drew you to it in the first place. More importantly, you might not realize all the benefits you’ve gained from it.

Fishing isn’t just a way to pass the time; it can help you gain valuable skills, increase your appreciation of nature, improve your overall wellbeing, and (of course) bring a smile to your face. Introducing a child to your beloved hobby will be a great joy, especially if you consider all the benefits of fishing for kids.

Hartford’s trout lakes are “jumping” now and it’s hard to not get a fish. A recent guest family visit saw Little Caitlin Baxter, who is as charming and gentle as ever, bring home a few beauties. Her smile was infectious and her love for nature and the thrill of the next catch, no words can describe.

Caitlin Baxter we salute you and we love that you are so special in every way. Thank you for spending time at Hartford and for showing us what it means to have a little bit of fun.

We hope to see you soon and hopefully you can teach us a thing or two about being the perfect fisher lady!
