Default My son the fisherman :)

My 4 year old son is a heck of a little fisherman. He caught 7 fish yesterday, one of which was a 1 pound bass ( he called it a grandpa fish). We walked a good mile back into the woods to find a nice little creek. He was tough as could be and kept up the whole way. We saw 3 deer, a garter snake, and a turtle.

We fished right below a little waterfall. My son loved every minute of it. He caught his first fish on his 2nd birthday. He caught a bluegill all by himself that day. I was helping my daughter with her pole when I looked around and he was reeling in the fish all by himself, and then he pulled it up on the bank! I love that little guy.

Man I wish I had some pics guys--I took my son and daughter( she is 5) fishing today. They caught about 6 fish total, all bluegill and 1 perch. I brought a digital camera but the dang battery died instantly. I missed it! I am taking them again tomorrow morning with my wife so I will snap some then. Thanks guys. I remember my dad and I fishing all day long. We fished like crazy when I was a teenager, many times smallmouth and largemouth fishing 3-4 days a week for years. I really miss those times.

That's great VirginiaShadow....
You need a cheap digital camera to show us your memories.

Here's my little boy (Jake) and his 1st fish... I did have to help him real it in!
