Youngsters with their prized catch
Vivienne Filippe, age 3, with her rainbow trout.
She caught this nice rainbow trout on her very own Barbie fishing pole, using a worm. She was fishing Thacker Pass Pond in northwest Nevada, nearby Orovada.
Sydney Pravato and her catfish
She caught this catfish at sunset in Las Vegas Nevada March 15, 2006. She caught it on a chunk of dough and reeled it in by herself. But she was still not happy, now she wants to catch a shark.
Well, no shark yet for Sydney but she caught an even bigger catfish in November of 2008. About 8 pounds.
