Attachment 104634This is Ethan; Gramma sent snacks, drinks, etc. for the fishing trip. We anchored the boat and started fishing. He caught about 6 Bluegills before his Dad & I got started. Then he ate a couple snacks, had a drink, and announced "I got some, I'm ready to go home" This whole trip lasted 40min.:Rofl:Rofl

I remember taking my 2 boys, around 5 and 8 years old, fishing for the first time, I had to keep about 200 small bluegills. You know how long it takes to fillets 200 small bluegills with a knife. I'll tell ya, a long time and a 6 pack. That next fathers day the boys got me an electric fillet knife, one of the best gifts I ever got. My boys are now 20 and 23 years old and I'm still using the same fillet knife. I don't know how many hundreds of pounds of fillet I got from that knife.

Great job, baby step will probably get him right into it. I was lucky, my daughters are 3 and 6, both love just playing in the boat when the fish aren't biting. (maybe we just weren't catching..LOL)

Good job. You will have more fun trips I am sure. You covered the 3 main things for a little fisherman. Fun Food Fish. You also quit when he wanted to. Good way to spoil fishing for a little fisherman is to make him fish all day when he's done.:cheers2:cheers2

Son, I'm 73 and I have had that ailment since before I was your age; you just have to make your mind up to suffer with it and make the best of it because it may never go away.

You have my sympathy and I will pray that you never get rid of this terrible affliction. Remember, it can be contagious and later in life, your youngins may catch it from you.
