got lucky two days in a row
« Reply #-1 on: April 14, 2015, 12:25:54 PM »
Minds out of the gutter now. :)

The boy wanted to fish again yesterday.  It was raining and yucky out side tried to talk him out of it,  But he kept bugging me so of we went.  We were playing around and he yells dad fish on.  Jump up and grab the rod.  We were super excited.  Then as I am fighting it he yells again dad fish on this rod.  I run over and set the hook and give him the rod and tell him to reel.  He is super excited telling dad I have a fish on over and over.  I thought we lost it when I set the hook.  But then we see it jump.  Now I am getting excited kuz we have two on at once.  As soon as it gets close I run out in the water to get it.  It was his first fish who cares if I get wet.  Then we get the second one in.  Crazy fun and super proud of him.  Good size fish for a 4 year old. 







Now that was a tasty meal.

That is some great family time FB! I can see the excitement in your son's eyes.  Fish does look awesome too! That is
one of the things I do miss about Washington state.

What a great day Mikal! Thanks for sharing your son's first fish experience! The little guy looks so happy! Very cool indeed! If I remember correctly, ( it has been awhile) the kid's fish always tastes better!  ;D.    Fish on!

I am stoked!!  Congrats on the really nice fish.  I hope to take my grandson fishing and have him tie into something like that one of these days.
