Took my grandson out after I gave him his first "man-size" spinning outfit. He practiced all the day before and his dad said he was ready! Took him out and he let fly with his first cast and as he was reeling it back (with the jig he picked out at Bass Pro) bang!
Can't do better than a fish on your first cast ever!

What a way to start the day off, Congrats to both of you.
Yes, this is a private 25 A lake that I am very fortunate to have been able to lease for many years with a group of relatives/friends. It has changed a lot over the years as it ages. It is very clear but gets a lot of ag runoff and is subject to algae blooms. Most recently american lotus has really invaded. There are no grass carp. There was once were channel cat but the otters took care of them.
That is pretty cool. Maybe he can give me lessons.
Fast forward a few weeks; My grandson now has a backpack full of lures, hooks, bobbers, crappie niblets, etc etc and is out fishing his dad. He told Grandpa I should run the boat and take him to my secret places... I think I have created a fisherman! ( Might be the best gift I will have ever given him)http://i57.tinypic.com/2hwlj0i.jpg
Looks like a very happy little boy. Congrats.
