Talk about fisin', a sinker, hook and worm 5 - 10 min - fish. Kids loved it wife didn't care the fire was warm and I had beer. trick is getting the hook out in front of the kids without freakin them out. - though it was wild catching fish at night - good fun - any hints about easy out hooks, I don't think the kids will buy the "there arn't any nerve endings here" story for long, a buddy suggested his needle nose plyer / spin move, but that will freak out young kids who are a bit brighter than a night light.
