1/2 day family fun
Today our young people live under more stress than ever before. In 2020 over 11,000 juveniles were held under secure detention.(https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/uu162/harbisonphoto/1(198).jpg?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds) (https://app.photobucket.com/u/harbisonphoto/a/6009fa49-e27e-4604-899d-cb5fb366ffe1/p/ba6d4b9a-7fc4-46e7-9104-96eb08b21c55)I worked with dysfunctional families for the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice for decades. Few of the juveniles I worked with had parents that spent quality-time with their children. None took them fishing on a regular basis. 1/2 day fishing is inexpensive, fun, and will put ear-to-ear smiles on the little ones while helping to keep them out of trouble.Let's take a close look at Florida 1/2 day fishing.As a sold out Friendly Fisherman unloads from a 8 AM 1/2 day morning trip, a sold our 1:00 PM trip is ready to enjoy five hour on the water:(https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/uu162/harbisonphoto/2(178).jpg?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds) (https://app.photobucket.com/u/harbisonphoto/a/6009fa49-e27e-4604-899d-cb5fb366ffe1/p/44e555d9-2781-4bcc-a1c9-906b6997e53e)Just being on the water for 5 hours is a pleasure in itself. Add some fish, great eats, and it's easy to see why people of all ages from all over the country enjoy Florida fishing:(https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/uu162/harbisonphoto/3(165).jpg?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds) (https://app.photobucket.com/u/harbisonphoto/a/6009fa49-e27e-4604-899d-cb5fb366ffe1/p/66ff2264-db53-41ab-b12a-d7dcc679a6d9)(https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/uu162/harbisonphoto/4(151).jpg?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds) (https://app.photobucket.com/u/harbisonphoto/a/6009fa49-e27e-4604-899d-cb5fb366ffe1/p/aed519e8-f0ae-4d62-a9a5-d4b13db5c6f5)Remember when we said 'great eats?' When Papa fires up that grill the aroma of hickory smoked bacon is a culinary delight that makes us want to come back over & over just for the eats:(https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/uu162/harbisonphoto/5(144).jpg?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds) (https://app.photobucket.com/u/harbisonphoto/a/6009fa49-e27e-4604-899d-cb5fb366ffe1/p/a2041bea-6245-4f3d-84c5-98e723f20a69)The family that fishes together stays together:(https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/uu162/harbisonphoto/6(136).jpg?width=1920&height=1080&fit=bounds) (https://app.photobucket.com/u/harbisonphoto/a/6009fa49-e27e-4604-899d-cb5fb366ffe1/p/35292b0b-9530-45ea-ba12-662270bf36b4)Drugs, get into trouble, become one of the 11,000...
