Best Day This Year Still Out Fished

[clayton86]

Had the best day out this year and was out fished by size and by number of fish caught. Who out fished me but none other then my son Noah. He managed to catch around 30 bluegill and 1 crappie in about 1.5 hrs. He picked the spot also the first spot I picked and we didn't even get a bite ad he kept begging he wanted to go across by the falls. So I took him over by the falls and first cast he got a nice sized blue gill then another and another almost every cast and the first 10 or so were good sized so we put em in a bucket and I fried them up tonight thought he only ate 1 small piece before passing out but it was almost 2 hours past his bed time by the time I cleaned them and got everything in order to make them.

I managed maybe 5 blue gill all dinks not even worth keeping and even he let me know it. He did want to keep one for his baby brother he said since it was a baby fish lol.

The crappy was his first ever I was so excited for him and it was a good sized crappie probably 15" I was so proud of him. He got it all by him self I bait the hook but he did all the rest. The whole time he kept saying how blue gill are the best fish ever and how proud he was lol he had a blast as did I. I usually don't fish when we go but he's got a good grasp on the concept I just let him fish but then he kept telling me to put a bobber on and catch some fish so that's what I did well tried.

Outstanding! Nothing better than a young angler being out fishing and thoroughly enjoying every minute of it.

Kudos to pops for getting him out!

He will be 4 next month this is his 3rd season fishing I got him started young his mother was fishing two days before being induced so he was fishing really young ya can say lol. He had a blast though he loves to fish and hunt.

Awesome!  I wish at least one my kids enjoyed it as much as I do.  The little one says she does but after 15 minutes she is "tired".

This morning I heard him coming to wake me up and he came in my room at 730 first thing he says " daddy get up when Oma gets out of work she gonna watch baby Jack and were going fishing again by the falls so I can try and catch a big bass" towards the end he was trying for bass with a mr twister but didnt have any luck.
