Spent the afternoon with my best fishing buddy, my granddaughter Sophie Ketola, and for the first time time in about 15 years I actually caught the most fish! Savoring the moment because it's probably the last time in another 15 years. I used a green Copper John on my Cabelas RLS rod. Sophie used a variety of lures on a spin casting rod. First time we've had a chance to get out together since she got married last year. I taught Sophie to fish when she was 5 years old. She's over 20 now and married, still fishing with Grandpa.
