It's a dreary, rainy, chilly day so It seemed like a great day to head to the local boat/tackle shop with the grandson. It's a given that a little time goes a long way with him so I make these visits somewhat short and try my best to look at things that he will like. That being said, had I bought everything he liked I would have spent $50,026.00. He seemed to love the Skeeter boat with some bells and whistles and a Spro BZ1 rat. While I admire his taste in boats and baits I do believe my wife would have had a coronary. lol Instead we walked out $23.00 lighter and he was happy.
The one thing to always remember Is whatever the task, whether It be fishing, tackle shops, or anything you are passionate about they are little folks and for the most part have a very low attention threshold. Keep it fun for them and whether it's 10 minutes or an hour know when to leave. I'm hoping he remembers these times fondly but If not that's just fine.
