Sounds like a good time to let him get some job experience with a part time gig around the lake and all the fishing he can handle..
I can backlash toilet paper.

May I provide some unsolicited advice?
Make sure he stays up on his schooling in case he needs to fall back on an education in the event that he does not turn out to be the next KVD. As the parent, you will have to figure out how to ensure there is the proper balance.
I'm as passionate about bass fishing as the next guy, but it is just like college athletics, very few can compete in the NFL. They need something to do when things don't work out. Not trying to be negative, just realistic.
Best of luck to you and your son.

If you need guidance on a kayak let me know. I know some people who can get him an awesome kayak for a great value complete with a FF and all of the extras he will need.
It will definitely make him a more patient fisherman knowing you can't motor to the other side of the lake when the bite it tough.

Have him camp at a place like Hideaway Harbor in Little Caney. It's safe, blocked by the wind if he is in a kayak and most importantly they have a nice shower for the campers to use!
