subject: Preparing Accordingly for your Family Fishing Trip [print this page] One of my favorite past times during the summer time with my family is when we would take family fishing trips over a three day weekend such as Labor Day. Everybody was off from school and my parents were away from work and we could all enjoy a nice and relaxing weekend out on the water. One of the best things about our fishing trips is that they were like a small vacation where we could just enjoy our time as a family. We would out get out on the boat, jump in the water, do some fishing, and play with our family dog, Max. I miss those days as a kid when fishing trips were my favorite time of year.Now that I have grown up and have had my own kids, it has become increasingly more difficult to get out and go fishing the way I used to. My work schedule is very busy, as is my wife's, and the kids have always got something going on. If it is not football practice and gymnastics it's soccer and a play-date. I would like to get back to the times when we could simply drop what we were doing and take a fishing trip as a family. Those were much simpler times and I am wishing I still got to do that regularly.Now, though we cannot do things like that very often, I still try to make plans with my family during the summertime where we can do things outdoors and have fun. My family not only enjoys fishing but lots of swimming, hiking, and camping as well. We have a lot of fun doing these things as a family because we all enjoy the outdoors and all of our different options when it comes to outdoor activities.One of our favorite places to go and get a chance to do all of these different activities is Lake Cumberland, located in the beautiful state of Kentucky. Lake Cumberland is hundreds of acres of beautiful land and water and it does not take too long to get there. It is one of those vacations that you can take that is close to home so you won't be emptying a wallet to enjoy your time. Book a small cabin and get the family together for some fun. Invite some friends and throw a small party, you will be glad that you did.Fishing is one of my favorite childhood past times and it may be one of your favorites as well. If it does happen to be one of your favorite things to do, then it may be a good idea to plan a fishing trip with your friends or family and go have some fun. Spending time with the family is important no matter how busy everyone is you simply have to make time for each other. All in all, whether you like to fish or go to your favorite store, plan some time for you and your family to get together and do something that you all enjoy.
