What could be better than a day of fishing? How about taking man’s best friend along for the ride? I have to admit, in the past I haven’t been a big proponent of taking my own dog out on the boat when I’m headed out to fish. It just creates one more thing to worry about, and with my previous retriever a duck flying by could trigger a sudden catapult-like leap over the side – that dog was insanely birdy, and my training was not up to his talents. But recently we got a new pup. With my daughter home from school due to all the Covid garbage we ended up spending a lot of time the past few months fishing together, and quite early on she started asking if we could take him out on the boat with us.
It was a great experience for me, my daughter, and I’m pretty sure for the dog, too. Most important to me, it made every trip even more fun for my daughter. But this old dog did learn a few new tricks along the way. So while I heartily think you’ll benefit from it if you decide to take your dog fishing, consider:
