    That will be a day he will never forget. Getting a child hooked on fishing is very special. Kids need something to do and spend their time with and fishing is a great activity for them to get into. You have a fishing buddy for life now. Great going!

    You will know Robbie is hooked for life if:

    1. He gets to school this morning and the fish is 18 inches long.

    2. When show and tell time comes its 20+ long.

    3. At days end he pulled that 28 inch pig from the depths of 35 ft of water with 4lb test.

    great story, thanks for sharing.

    Great story. Thanks for sharing. What a great experience

    that had to of been. Now you will have him trained that it only takes one cast to catch fish. I can remember my first outing with my dad. We trolled and trolled and trolled and when I would start to doze off or daydream he would secretly grab my line and give a good hard pull on my line and quickly release it before I noticed. That seemed to keep me focused for 30 more seconds or so. I vowed never to troll ever again when I grew up because of how boring it seemed……..guess what is one of my favorite techniques?

    Thanks for sharing!

    Great story. Sounds a lot like my first experience with fishing, except mine was a 13″ largemouth. After that, I got hooked and can’t get enough. Hopefully your son will be the same way.
