Super User clayton86 Posted March 29, 2012 Super User Posted March 29, 2012 I had the scariest moment happen to me yesterday. My 2 yearold Noah has been asking me for weeks to take him fishing when I was home on leave. Well yesterday we finally went he was so exited to go fishing it's all he talked about all up till we went. Well we went to lake Ontario to try our hand at some perch the hotline sad the perch bite had been pretty hot there. Well were fishing he insisted he had to cast his own pole in doing so he hooked me in my leg not into the skin just into my shorts. Well I was getting the hook out I took ny eyes off him and he slipped into the drink. The wife started screaming I looked over and dove right in it was only 1.5 to 2.5 feet deep still to deep for him and enough to scare the living **** outa me. I got him out instantly stood him on the picnic table right there and striped him naked and wraped him up in my hoodie. As he's standing there naked and wet all he cared about was staying fishing. He wasn't at all concerned he just fell into a freezing lake. Even after getting him to the truck and fresh clothes on him he started to cry cuz I told him we were done fishing and going home. He threw a fit he wanted to keep fishing cuz he hadn't caught anything yet. So this morning he wakes up demands cookies for breakfast and that we gotta go to walmart and get him a life jacket. He remembered last night I told him no fishing till we get him a life jacket. I figured he would be traumatized and never wanna fish again but he's still all gung ho for it he's such a trooper. Iv been beating my self up over it though that it happend because I looked away for half a second. I'm not taking him again till he's got a life jacket even if we are fishing off the bank accidents still happen they just did. He's gonna have a busy summer well I'm in Kuwait he turns 3 in may and is getting signed up for swimming lessons ontop of the karate lessons we told him he can do also. Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted March 29, 2012 Super User Posted March 29, 2012 Glad to hear everything was fine. I know that scarred the hell out of you. Don't beat yourself up over it though. No harm no foul. Also you heard what the boy said. Get your butt too Wal*Mart and get his life jacket. The boy has the itch to fish. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Super User Posted March 29, 2012 He's not gonna be fishing for a while though I'm leaving for 10months at midnight he's gotta wait. Quote
Super User Redlinerobert Posted March 29, 2012 Super User Posted March 29, 2012 Scary indeed. Glad he is ok. He's a rockstar for wanting to continue to fish. 1 Quote
ROCbass Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 He's not gonna be fishing for a while though I'm leaving for 10months at midnight he's gotta wait. Momma won't take him out? Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Super User Posted March 30, 2012 Momma won't take him out? No she won't take him most likely. Today was funny though he had a great idea a little miss informed but I like how he thinks he's obviously my flesh and blood lol. Noah: mommy daddy needs a boat so I don't fall off the bank. Wife: u think daddy needs a boat Noah: duh mommy that's what I said don't u listen 1 Quote

Wife: u think daddy needs a boat Noah: duh mommy that's what I said don't u listen Hmm. I've been trying to tell my fiance that after we get married we should get a boat before having kids because once we have kids we won't be able to afford the boat. Maybe I should switch tactics and let the kids do the persuading lol. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted March 30, 2012 Author Super User Posted March 30, 2012 Iv been brain washing him for almost 3 years now and the baby iv been working on for 8 months. Noah would rather be out side with the horses or fishing and hunting then inside playing or watching cartoons he knows who Ike is and bill dance, KVD all of em he knows what buttons on the remote to push to bring up the outdoor channel and sportsmans channel. The wifes in trouble having two sons and me she's force fed the outdoors but she likes to fish so it works out fine. Quote
