Way to go!
I also did a family trip. I had papa at the helm, with my wife, 5 yo daughter and 2 yo son. The plan was to have my daughter try to reel a fish instead of lifting pan fish up on to the dock.
A really late start... launched around 10am. We did 3 passes by the west tip and called it a successful outing.
Landed 2, lost 2 and had couple misses with the boards dropping back but no hook up.
Hits were on copper(shorts) and leadcore. I ran same colours on all rods. Similar to your hot spoon. #1 last year was Bad Melon in a shoehorn. I also like watermelon. Didnt run any this trip.
As for Ella. She was timid to try the first fish. Mom reeled it in. After seeing that Ella was up to trying. We got Ella on a 5 colour with a pretty good fish on. She was able to get about 125 - 150 feet of line in before being tuckered out. We did the hand off to Mom again. Ended up being an 18 lbs slob. Pretty impressed with Ella getting that much line in.
Hopefully next trip we can get her into a small laker...which may be tough. Last year we landed 67 and only 2 were under 10lbs.
I believe your one pic has us in your backdrop.
