I have to agree with Clark on this one.

My kids still talk about the time last year when we watched someone take 
about 15 minutes attempting to land a muskie from the fishing pier by the 
Rose Garden.  He had a big crowd cheering him on with lots of suggestions.  
He finally tried to drag the muskie (which looked pretty darn big) to shore 
only to lose it at the very end (oh why didn't he bring a net?!?) 

Also the first fish my daughter ever caught was about a 1 lb bass out of 
Lake Harriet.  We had to throw it back but was she ever proud of herself.
