This year is the first year that my youngest has really seemed to enjoy fishing. He's been crappie fishing with me a few times before but, he just can't hold out for very long. After about 30 min he's ready to ride in the boat. I've posted on here a few times about the bream we have been chasing, not trying to brag, but I'm just trying to keep him interested. He thinks its really cool to see himself on the computer.
Anyway, we went again this weekend and I got schooled by a 5 yr old. He only caught 3 and I only caught 2 but he had some ringers. His standard MO is reel em up to the bobber hits the end of his pole and walk backwards and drag em up on the bank. lol. The tackle box in this picture is 11''.
As I write this, I'm scared to add up all the gear I have to fish for crappie and those that know me, know that I really love to crappie fish.... But some days nothing beats just two guys walking down a dirt road with two poles, one tackle box, a bucket of crickets, and a dog, sliding through a barbwire fence and easing down to a old farm pond....especially, if one of them is your boy.
Son, I know you can't read yet, but when you can, if its possible for you to ever go back and read this thread, I want you to know that these are some of the best days of my life.....
Quick, How bout flipping these pics for me, I still can't figure out why it does this. Computer won't let me rotate them.
