Join us for an unforgettable FAMILY FUN DAY where we are CATCHING FISH TOGETHER! In this exciting outdoor adventure, we are taking family bonding to the next level by sharing a fun-filled day of fishing, laughter, and quality time together. From baiting hooks to reeling in the big catch, we are capturing all the special moments and sharing them with you! So, sit back, relax and get ready for a wonderful time with our family as we make memories that will last a lifetime.
There are so many ideas for a fun-filled family day, such as camping, hiking, a day trip, biking, a trip to the zoo, a movie night at home with treats and pizza, board games, and even something very simple, just sitting on the porch and talking, telling stories and laughing. There are countless activities that a family can enjoy and build their own relationship with. In this article, I will talk about a beautiful, fun activity for the whole family, regardless of age, FISHING, and the equipment we need for such an activity.
As we grow up, we have memories from our childhood, which is why it is very important to have beautiful and fun moments with our family, so that as we grow up, we can in turn pass them on to our own children and our children to theirs as they grow up, with the ultimate goal of building a bond that can last a lifetime.
For years now, our family (Antoniadis) has had a beautiful tradition of entertainment involving all members of our family, which is spending the night at the beach fishing. This tradition began before our eldest son even entered adolescence.
As parents, we were thinking of various ideas so that we could do it all together as a family even with a kid/kids in adolescence. We were thinking of an activity so that our children could enjoy it even as they grew up, without the feeling of boredom, but by taking advantage of the time spent together as a family with the aim of continuing the relationship we built as a family and trying to make our family relationships even stronger, through the time we spend together through various activities, whether they are planned or can be last-minute (spontaneous activities).
Countless summer nights, dad Theodoros preparing everything we need for fishing and mom Georgia preparing everything we need for the overnight stay. I remember the first few times, until we learned exactly what was really useful to have with us on the beach throughout the evening, we had a few difficulties, like with mosquitoes, or when the child wanted to sleep, or when the temperature started to drop at night and several nights from the fog and humidity you felt terribly cold all over your body. Now all of this has taught us the useful and important things we need to have with us for an overnight stay on the beach while fishing.
Dad Theodoros is responsible for all the fishing equipment, which he starts preparing days in advance because it is preferable to be prepared early so that there is no waste of time getting to the beach. It is preferable to have the fishing equipment prepared in advance so that there is no waste of time when reaching the beach. The most essential element of the equipment is the rods and the type of fishing that each person wants to engage in.
There are several types of rods, such as, a rod for lakes, a different rod for rivers and a different one for beaches. Our choice is on the beach, if your choice is the same, make sure to also have special equipment in case there are rocks on the beach, because this may create problems with casting your rod, especially when it gets stuck on the rocks, the result is very likely to be that your line will be cut and you will lose the equipment you had on (weights, etc.). Once you have your rods ready, you must choose the appropriate bait so that you can catch the type of fish you want.
Depending on the season and location, there are also fish species. You can research the day you want to fish what are the most prevalent fish in your location to choose the right bait. In addition, make the right choice of time because a large and significant role in catching fish is in the evening until dawn and dusk.
Beyond choosing a rod or rods and bait, choosing fishing line is considered a particularly essential element of fishing equipment. If you are a beginner, you can consult the employees at the stores that sell fishing supplies, such as sinkers, metal sinkers, hooks, illuminated lights for the night, small bells that hang from the rod, and many other miscellaneous items that you will need to make your rod (fishing pliers, bait needle, water net, etc.).
Furthermore, your equipment should include a small refrigerator or a simple bucket of water to put the fish you catch in so that they can preserved until you get home by putting them in the freezer.
Mom Georgia prepares the portable refrigerator with food, treats and various drinks for everyone. You can take with you whatever you like and are hungry for, in the special refrigerator with ice to preserve the food and any milk for our little ones.
She also prepares a beach bag with extra clothes for everyone and warm clothes for emergencies. In addition, he prepares a large bag with very useful things that are important for spending the night on the beach, such as mosquito repellent, special lenses, various and small useful things for overnight stay, garbage bag, it is quite important to transmit to our children the feeling of caring for and preserving the ecological environment.
We keep the various cans and batteries that have been emptied, placing them in the special containers that are set up in various places in our neighbourhood. We do not throw useless objects and papers on the beach and always clean it before we leave so that both we and our fellow humans can enjoy it every time.
Beyond having fun, we must simultaneously teach our children various knowledge such as the ecological environment and the feeling of empathy by keeping the space we were in clean because after us other families with children will come and it is not right for them to find it dirty because we would not like to go somewhere and deal with dirt and impurities either. Remember, if we do not like something, others do not like it either.
In addition, we always have extra blankets and various sea toys for the little ones. There are small children’s beds that are approved by the Ministry of Education and can easily fit in any car, we always have such a bed with us for our little Augusta who sleeps during the night.
Enjoy such moments with your family as much as possible, put down your mobile phones and the television for few hours, spend time with each other, and build your family relationship even stronger and stronger. Fishing is an activity that requires a lot of patience, sit comfortably in your chairs, relaxing, having your favourite drink and food, and perhaps some soft music (not too loud because the fish need quiet to bite), and create beautiful images with the sea in the background and memories starring you.
