Growing up with a grandfather who lived on Buzzard’s Bay, and loved to fish is every girl’s dream, right? Well I am happy to say that’s what I was exposed to almost every weekend growing up: Fishing.

With three big brothers and my Papa to take me out, it was truly a wonderful experience grow-ing up with weekends in Cotuit. No — I didn’t sneeze, it’s really a town called (Co-to-it.)

The first fish I ever caught was a sand shark. I vividly remember-ing reeling it up, pulling it in Papa’s sailboat and it chomped

Page 8: New England Compass

down on my big toe. While sand sharks teeth are small, they still hurt... and will make you bleed. I start crying, flaying, screaming “Get it off!” My grandfather was standing there, watching and laugh-ing uncontrollably. Finally, the little jaws unlatched and Papa threw him back in the water. The classic catch and release.

Regardless of that pain, it was a memory I will never forget. I want that for my own two boys (not to get bit by sharks) but to discover of the love of fishing.

While I can’t give them a life on the ocean, my husband and I have been able to be fortunate enough to purchase a lake house. We live 200 ft from the water and

have our own dock. Fishing from that dock on a warm spring or summer day is just the best. By the time my oldest was 4, he was fully trained on how to hook a worm, cast and reel—just like I was.

My boys are lucky, they get to participate in good ‘ol sportsmanship. The Fishing Derby. I never entered a fishing derby, but I can tell you if I did, I would have one first place.

Spring is finally here, and we are getting ready for all the excitement a youth fishing derby brings with it. Please find on the next a list of youth tournaments around New England.

KId’S FISHINg SAFEty tIPS

• Establish rules. No running. Keep your shoes on, and look around before you cast.

• Set up a buddy system. The young-est anglers need an adult “buddy” and constant supervision.

• Make sure each angler, swimmers and non-swimmers alike, wears a personal flotation device at all times — on the boat, on the dock, or on the shore.

• Bring a long-handled fish net, not just for netting fish, but in case you need to reach out to someone in the water. It will also retrieve trash or valuables from the water.

• First Aid Kit. You should have a kit with medical supplies to deal with all manner of cuts and scrapes, bruises and bumps, bites and boo-boos. You’re likely to be some distance away from professional medical assistance so remember, in the meantime, you’re the “doctor.” Johnson & Johnson First Aid Pocket Pals are a smart addition to the tackle box.

• Cold drink breaks. Summer temper-atures can get pretty warm, so bring lots of cool water and other healthy drinks and make sure the young anglers drink fluids often to prevent dehydration or even heat stroke.

• Sunscreen. The ultraviolet (UV) light of the sun can do a lot of damage to skin, eyes and lips. Outfit young anglers with proper sunglasses, a billed cap, and clothing appropriate to the climate and sun conditions. Avoid fishing in the middle of the day. Cover face, neck, ears, the back of hands and all exposed skin with sunscreen with a sun protection factor of 15 or higher. Apply chap protection wax on lips.

• Insect repellent. Mosquitoes, ticks, bees and other insects not only sting, they can carry diseases of one kind or another. Apply insect repellent. Follow the directions on the container. If your insect repellent contains “Deet,” it may be better to apply it to the clothing instead of the skin.

• Safety comes first. All the checklists in the world can’t anticipate all of the safety problems you or your young anglers might encounter on a fishing trip. So the best advice is think safety at all times. Look for trouble before it finds you. If it finds you anyway, know how to deal with it.

• Wear non-slip shoes to avoid slipping on slippery surfaces or cutting yourself on sharp edges.

• When you’re carrying your fishing rod make sure the hook is secure (not dangling) and hold the rod parallel to the ground

thE lOnG trAIl, vtThe oldest long distance hiking trail in America

The Long Trail is a hiking trail located in Ver-mont, running the length of the state. It is the oldest long-distance trail in the United States[1], constructed between 1910 and 1930 by the Green Mountain Club. The club remains the primary organization responsible for the trail, and is recognized by the state legislature as “the founder, sponsor, defend-er, and protector” of the Long Trail System.

Built by the Green Mountain Club between 1910 and 1930, the Long Trail is the oldest long-distance trail in the United States. The Long Trail follows the main ridge of the Green Mountains from the Massachusetts-Vermont line to the Canadian border as it crosses Ver-mont’s highest peaks. It was the inspiration for the Appalachian Trail, which coincides with it for one hundred miles in the southern third of the state.

Although the Long Trail is known as Vermont’s “footpath in the wilderness,” its character may more accurately be described as back-country. As it winds its way to Canada, the Trail climbs rugged peaks and passes pristine ponds, alpine bogs, hardwood forests and swift streams. The Long Trail is steep in some places, muddy in others, and rugged in most. Novice and expert alike will enjoy the varied terrain of the trail as it passes through the heart of Vermont’s backwoods.

With its 273-mile footpath, 175 miles of side trails, and nearly 70 primitive shelters, the Long Trail offers endless hiking opportunities for the day hiker, weekend overnighter, and extended backpacker.

The Long Trail is marked by two-by-six-inch white blazes. Along the trail, intersections are usually marked with signs. Double blazes may mark important turns. Side trails are blazed in blue and signed.
