Congratulations Robert!

And sorry to hear about your bout with pneumonia, but glad you've recovered.

I came down with some bug the first of April that caused me to miss over a month of fishing.

The first week and a half was planned vacation and the rest of the time it was drag myself to work and back home. The only plus was I lost 15 pounds and I had been planning on going on a diet😊.

Anyway here's wishing you many years of fun fishing with your son! Some things are even more rewarding than catching a big one.

See, there you go, proving my point for me. I'm talking about trophy fish of "little species", 10 inch rios, 11 inch sunfish, etc. You'll have that 25 lb. 3 year old catching 30 lb stripers. . I sure hope he inherited some toughness from his mom, he's going to need it.

Congrats again, he's a lucky young man. He's got a lifetime in the great outdoors ahead of him.

Lmao to funny and thank you my friend! He has no idea of the absolutely amazing adventure of a life he has to look forward to with me as his dad!! Quail,ducks,dove,deer,pigs,bunnies,(i Don�t eat turkey hope he doesn�t either lol),Some amazing float trips with camping, and some of the best fireside food you could ever imagine. I can�t wait. Definitely hope I can pass on my garden to him in the tradition of canning your own food out of your garden.
