At 7p.m. on Friday night my Son Michael Jesse said: “Daddy, I want to go catch a monster.” I said: “son, it suppose to rain, be windy and probably will be a really bad day to go catch a monster. He said, “I don’t care, I want to go.” So, after a good tip on some decent kids rain/cold gear from Tom we made a quick trip to Academy and got some bibs and a jacket. Got up at 4:45am….he popped up like a spring, we did our traditional Whataburger #10 and we were on the road headed east. He talked my ear off the entire way. Got on the water at 7:25am and found fish right off the bat. I told him I was not going to catch fish on this trip…that he had to reel in every fish. That ended not happening because on 3 different occasions we had on doubles and I had to reel in 3 fish. Other than that, MJ reeled in 43 fish. Previous to this trip, his largest was a Lake Worth 8.10 lber (I promised him I would start taking him on monster blue cat trips when he turned 6) His bday was a few weeks ago and he has started well. He upgraded from a 8.10, to a 15, then 30 minutes later upgraded to an acrobatic 26lber who surfaced and cleared the water on a magnificent jump (which he is still talking about). Then 2 hours later, he landed by himself a 41 lber. We had a fine day on the water. He finally fell asleep in the bean bag on the water about 2p.m. and I made a run for the ramp and got the boat out of the water b4 he woke up…If I wouldn’t have, I’m afraid he would have NEVER left! Good times! ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5447.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5452.jpg) 15lber.....1st PB of the day! ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5456.jpg) Then, a drag screaming, acrobatic 26lber that i've got amazing video footage of: ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5467.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5464.jpg) Intermission he got an 18: ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5474.jpg) Then, updgrated to a 41'ber: ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5489.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5481.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v140/catfishsalsa/DSCF5494.jpg) He is ready to go back!

when we walked in the door, he made me log on to TP&W site and look up lake record for youth on Twok. 57lbs. He said he wants a 58'ber for Christmas.

Makin memories Way to go DAD
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
