It's fun fishing with your grandkids! Glad you put Brenden on some fish. He'll remember it forever.

Good going Slip

it was a great set up... i found the hole we fished yesterday. re drilled it and dropped the transducer down and saw fish moving... i lower a jig down in the midst and hooked up immediately with a 6 incher... i told Brenden "now its your turn".... i lowered the jig down to the bottom and handed him the pole. i said reel up a little to get it off the bottom so the fish could see it and he already had one on... awesome.

Awesome! Special Grampa bonding moment he will talk about in 50 years!
