Mattson, our little boy, has been asking me for a big boy fishing pole. So being that he turns 4 on Saturday, we gave him a Zebco 202 with a 5.5 foot rod.

Today he wore it out, catching 2 of his 3 reds by himself. Put a 1/2oz black spoon or a crazy mullet and he could throw it a mile. Luckily we had a pod of redfish that we were able to keep up with. He landed 2-26’s and a 27” red for dinner tonight. He also fought one I hooked on a DSL strawberry wine, which was 33”. He said it was HUGE!

Mattson looks like a future guide in the making! Way to go!

"Lifetime Memories" Awesome post!

Man that is outstanding. That's one of those "Daddy remember when" moments.

Great post, reminds me of when my son was that age. Those years were so much fun. Thanks for sharing.
