He caught this one today, his biggest so far. Almost had a bass, but it jumped and spit it out. Finally got him into some bigger fish, other than the usual local park ponds with 7" cats, and 3" bluegill. This one was about 9" or so. I can't wait to see him hook something more than 2 pounds.

That is a monster!!! Where were you fishing. My son loves to catch 'gills, I have taken him out a couple trips and put him on some drums and it's a blast to see him fight. Congratulations to your son and keep him hooked on fishing.
Brandon-I bet that one did fry up nicely

I never set a hook half-a**, when I set the hook, I rip the lip.
RIP THOSE LIPS!!!

Thanks for all the comments, of course the camera angle makes it "look" really big, like the length of his leg! I should have weighed or at least measured it. I need to check with the owners and see about others coming along sometime. Due to the land area, there is expensive machinery, cattle and other reasons they might not go for it. I'll see.
