So I love fishing alone not because I don�t enjoy company but my boat isn�t that large I like to sling to the side with 15� to 2� of line hanging. I recently took out a kid who I have been working with (to get his GED and yes he�s legal) but also who wants to get into bass fishing. I fish a jon boat club�.single man club but there is a team trail too so I told him we would start fishing that. Thought that I would hate it not because of him (he�s really a cool kid with a good sense of humor) but because of the crowded conditions and the fact that I would have to teach a little and start throwing overhand��not my favorite casting. I�m amazed at how quick he has picked up using a bait caster and I amazed at how much I enjoyed fishing with someone. Teaching him to fish away from the bank we were the only boat to catch fish and he got his first bass�.. 5lb 9oz. I think I was more excited than him. Just really surprised at what I had been missing fishing with a partner. Of course didn�t pre charge the GoPro so missed his catch but got pictures

thats awesome. good for you

Those are some nice fish! Good on you for sharing your wisdom and passion. Looks like a great time. Hope y'all wack a bunch more together.

Props to you, that's awesome in so many ways. Memories made that you'll both share forever!

Wow Crank. That is a great story. I know you are a good influence in that kids future success. Keep up the good work. Teaching someone to fish is very exciting for both of you and I know he appreciates you taking him under your wing.
That is a beautiful stringer, very nice and congrads. to both of you.

I always like reading your positive posts.... and your boat just shows you can catch quality fish without taking out a mortgage.... keep up the good work...

Great looking fish guys. Great job!!

Nice fish! I am the same way, I normally like to fish alone, but when I do take someone I wish I'd do it more often.

Thank you for paying it forward and passing the sport on to the next generation!

That is awesome, I still remember your old Huck Finn boat.

ahhaaaaa funny but true....thanks man

+1

Yup this thing. I guess it's funny but i really did learn a lot about bass on that thing and while my boat now is by no means a bass boat.....i like it

Great looking fish! Thanks for helping get another person involved in our sport. He is lucky to have a friend that is willing to take the time to share your time and knowledge with him. That is what it is all about, not just catching.

Great job man. You may help save a kids life. Keep him involved. Good to see your pics on here.
