Sunday I got to take my whole family out for a few hours which happens far to rarely. Many of you have met my oldest son Ty who is ate up with fishing since he caught his first fish at 2 1/2. He's also the one in my Sig pic although as you can see he's almost 6 now and has grown quite a bit. I also have a younger son named Eli who had yet to catch his first fish. Well... that's all better now as he caught his first fish Sunday afternoon. I had to make the cast and help w little but he reeled it in and held it up for the camera. Best part was before I even got it off the hook he said I wanna catch another one Daddy! Now I know a lot of kids start with bluegill or crappie or sand bass on live bait. Not my kids, Ty's first was on a finesse jig and Eli's first was on a wacky worm! Proud of both these kids and thrilled with their interest in fishing.



Today I went out looking around for some upcoming trips and had a good day with about 15 either sight fishing but most were on a wacky rigged watermelon red senko including the big one of the day which weighed in at just under 8lbs. I have caught a lot of fish on this bait when the bass are on beds. This rig catches some of those cruisers who aren't quite committed yet. Good luck out there.

Man that's awesome!! Proud to know both of these munchkins!!

That's what keeps me fishing,,,,,,,my "kids" 37 & 33.
Love it when they catch fish and I am there.
GREAT family there Billy. Looks like they were having a super time with Dad.

....as good as it gets!

Great looking Kids, you're doing good stuff there Dad..
