Brody's first solo fish, all on his own.

here is brody with a decent blue gill he caught all by himself. the only problem is his SPIDERMAN fishing rod was not up to the task. heck, i consider myself a pretty good fisherman, and i even had trouble. gonna go this week and get him a "real" rod with the classic starter reel, ZEBCO 33. yall check this out.

Looks like the little man may be hooked. Won't be long and he will be pulling in the crappie right along side of you.

Doc that's life at it's best. Linda looked at the picture and said, gosh he's that big already. Time flies, so spend as much time as you can with him before time is gone.

yes, ppg, time does fly. i vaguely remember gracie and maggie being so young. he is a very tall two year old. he won't be three until june and he is already 41 inches tall (that's 3 feet 5 inches for yall non math folks. LOL). i really hope it won't be too terribly long til he is snatching crappie with me on a regular basis.

That's awesome Mark! Good to start them young and keep them interested. Brody may be the next "Wally Marshall" success story! :)

But don't discount Spiderman. Barbie did pretty good one time for the guy in this link!

i can see you are a smart man by the shirt you are wearing

paw in law loses the back seat to his own grandson!:p

Steve it looks like Mark needs to start saving up for Brody's first boat before he starts the college fund.

That's funny shooter, I was gonna announce that I had figured out why the rod wasn't working for him - it had something to do with the shirt.

I remember my daughter's first fish. It was a goggle-eye and we were in my kayak. It was a trip trying to film it and make sure she didn't drop the rod. Good times man, gooooooood times.

Time goes by so fast my oldest is 18 and I can remember casting and baiting poles for him and his sister as fast as I could in a private pond and they were pulling in some hugh bream, after they had cauhgt 67 I was plumb worn out. Doc all I can say is (SAVOR THE MOMENT) it goes by way to fast.

There is nothing more exciting than seeing your little ones catch their first fish,unless it's the grand children. Enjoy it Doc and way to go Brody !!

Mark, that's memories that will not be forgotten. and as for your math comment, it was hard for me to resist editing your numbers to make them wrong, but I did...lol... Keep him fishing and it will help keep him out of trouble. That is, unless his mom gets mad because he is fishing too much..lol

He's gonna feel like a big boy fisherman when he gets that 33 in his hands. You have him started now so dont back up. Take him often and he'll learn to be quite the fishing buddy. Congrats on his first fish.;):)

That boy is growing like a weed. Way to go Brody!!!!!!!

That's Awesome Mark! I see my days in the back seat of your boat are numbered, too, but am happy to fess it up to Brody!
