Took The Wife And Kid Fishing

[clayton86]

I took my 2 year old out fishing today for his first outing where it was all about him and not him following me around bass fishing. The wife decided to tag along as well she didn't trust me lol. So we went to a marsh on the rez with a cane pole some worms and gulp maggots oh and the sponge bob pole.

We fished for 2.5 hrs it was non stop action the whole time noah managed to catch 4 by himself with the cane pole. How he accomplished this I'm not sure because he was whacking the water with the pole making a ton of comotion trying to scoop the hydrilla with the pole. But he did catch 4 little blue gill wich he was exited about but terrified of.

It was off and on with my son his attention span well he doesn't have one haha if he wasn't fishing he was throwing the gulp into the water feeding the sunfish yelling "ummy fishy" I think he dumped 3/4 of the can of gulp but he would pick it up and hand it to me or my wife with the saying "ummy fishy" then tell us to put it in the water. We caught upwards of maybe 50 bluegills and pumpkin seed if I had to put a number on it.

I swear he is a bass fisherman at heart though when he used the spongebob pole I would cast it as far as I could hand it to him and he would just reel it right back in twitching and pausing. Once it was back he'd scream bloody murder run to a diffrent spot and tell me "pole water" telling me to cast here. He worked a good 50ft section of bank running around never sitting in one spot. I think next time I'm gonna put a mr twister or fuzzy grub on for him under the bobber see how he does with that or maybe a senko.

haha nice story man sound like a good time out with your son! I often have trouble with the forum's image uploading too and just use an external image uploader and paste the code here. I personally use tinypic but photobucket etc should work.

Good of you to spend time with your son fishing!

We went out again last night for about an hour to the same spot caught a few but not that many the water level came up some and it was windy. My son was exited to go but once there he was more intrested in keeping me with a constant supply of worms for my wife. He fished a little bit but not much but he sure made my proud just playing with the worms. He's usually as much as I hate to say it girly when it comes to the worms or fish or anything really. He usually screams and points going "ewwww ucky ucky ucky" but yesterday he was all in the worms playing with them he seen me cuting them in half so he started riping them in half then in half again laying them on his tackle box for me. Once we got on some gills he was all for touching them today no screaming like befor he would pet there tail sniff em go "ewww" then stick his tounge out at it almost licking it haha. It was great then to top it all off he seen me take a tick in the woodline so guess what he had to do for the rest of the night he ran to every bush or tree yelled "pee pee" and demanded he peed like daddy. We tried to let him but he still dosnt get the concept I think he just stood there thing in the wind yelling pee pee and grunting like he's pooping thank god he didn't lol.

I guess my sons at home asking to go my wife said he's walking around looking for me going "daddy pole (insert fish lips face) me" wich is 2yr old for daddy take me fishing. He's gonna be upset when I go out without him today I'm going for bass by myself today after work. Its not a bad thing though I got him brain washed young to go fishing everyday.
