A Mile Stone Day!

Jacob had enough of me going fishing without him, so we loaded up and went up the creek. I am proud to say that after catching several on minners, he wanted to use a long pole like daddy. He acted like he has used one for years and went to yanking them out of the deep water brush piles. We ended up with 5 keeper crappie and two giant bluegill and caught another 60 more small fish. It was a day that I will never forget. I think that Santa will be bring him his own 10' rear seat Ozark.

He claims that he caught all of them!

I like that smile Jacob has there, that tooth missing, but you can tell he is not worried about that tooth missing he is having fun catching fish with his dad. That's good that is the way it ought to be. Way to go you two.

Wish I had of known that was you I met as you and your son was headed back out to deeper water. He sure seemed excited to be fishing with a long pole... Looks like you have a fine fishing partner now.

HAHA!!! Great post Matt that Young man is getting taught right.

Best way to spend time together and great pictures

WTG dad I love to see the excitement and enthusiasm that a lot of little ones have about fishing. That is the good stuff right there congratulations. I bet your son is growing up to be a fine young man.

Great post. Thanks.

Great job.

I saw ya'll out there as well and should have said hi but didn't want to bother you with your son in the boat. I was fishing pretty close to you in shallower water over by the dock straight across to the west from the flag. Sitting up front in a red seat that you helped me decide on a few months back.

Jacob sounded like he was having a blast.
