That is great! I think taking kids fishing is one of the most important things we can do. Those memories never die. Watching that pencil float vanish is something that will still excite me even if i live to be 110. :-)

It sounds like grandpa's methods were tried and true.....old school, and highly effective!
I took my grandson out fishing for the first time a few weeks ago.....I hope he picks up my old school knowledge as you did.....and remembers me.....as you do him.
