Heard an 80 year old judge say on the radio in the early 1970's that every time he had a delinquent juvenile in his court room, he always asked the same question:
"Did your Dad ever take you fishing?" He said, "A delinquent child never one time answered yes".
He went on, not that fishing matters, but Dad's "time" with kids is the whole root to raising respectable children.
Thanks again for sharing, & may she always be your very best friend for ever & ever.

That may be true in some cases, but in my personal experience, my dad spent almost no time with me, and never went fishing (though my aunt did). I wasn't a juvenile delinquent... Or an adult delinquent either, for that matter.
But if fishing works, I say go for it.
