kids kite fishing
Submitted by Markie on Sun, 2010-09-12 19:12
Just had a laugh wit a guy i use to be friends wit as a lil kid, i seen at the shops. Doesnt have anything to do wit fishin but as 12 year olds we use to get his dads beach rod wit probs about 300 metres of line plus and tie our big w bought kites onto it. If ya wanted it higher just let the line out if you wanted it in just reel, very smart way of flyin a kite. One day we let all the line out and it just came right off the reel and over powerlines south st and north lake road. haha any of use do this as kids or we the only silly ones?

i went to kardinya primary
i went to kardinya primary and we made our own kites one year and i used an old reel to fly it, seemed like it was real high but probably was just cause i was young. maybe something to do with the water down them ways!
