Fishing panfish with my sons

My 4 sons aged 4 to 14 were off school today,so I took them out for a day of panfishing. Weather was nice and sunny, though a bit on the windy side.

We headed across the Ontario border to zone 18 hoping to hook into some nice bluegill sunfish, using live worms I caught in front of my house the previous night.

The bluegills never showed, but we managed to land 3 perch between 5 and 8 inches, and missed about 5 or 6 others. Kids had a blast, my wife got a break from the kids, and I got back to doing what I enjoy most.
