I had enough today...My son went to Boy Scout Camp a couple weeks ago & since then he's laid around in the A/C watching TV and playing playstation, so today I put a 3wt Rod in his hand and made him catch fish...I bored him with stories about the old days (1990 or so) and how when I was a kid all i had to play with was a string and stick. When he thought I wasn't looking I'm pretty sure I saw him smile while catching a bluegill

Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

 That'll teach him! Same thing with my youngest, though. We go outside and she says she has a headache?! What she needs is CONDITIONING not AIR-CONDITIONING!

I'm not sure the lesson took!  I think you need to take him out few more times this summer and make sure it sticks with him.

Nice job dad! That's pretty funny to see him hold back the smile...
