I've been looking to get one of those too after seeing people fish with their babies on board.
Several of us were fishing the Vineyard derby and were on the way home from the daybreak Wasque Albie run when we saw some albies breaking off Chappy beach. We get out of the line for the ferry and get out our gear. There are twenty people there and the only person getting fish is this lady with a 6 moth old or so baby in one of those packs. She keeps casting, singing nursery rhimes to the baby (but changing the words to relate to fishing) and she's the only one hooking up.... She must have gotten 5 or 6 torpedoes while the rest of us got skunked all while singing nursery rhimes to the kid. My only fear was that the kid would dump over the top when she knely down to release a fish or that a stray "Murderous Richard" would snag the poor kid...
