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.

no matter what i do or try.....i cant get away from my training! my granddad fished one way and he tault me that one way same as my dad they tault me the same things...LIVE BAIT! im open to try new things and other ways of fishing but if it dont work i get inpatient and go back to what i know!every move i make on a lke is what my granddad would do. lol i find myself telln other people that their way is no good. but i love this site. this is my facebook. im learning alot from u guys everyday. i wish granddad was alive to see how fishing has evolved and the new ways of doing things he would ove this

Wow! What a dedication to a family member who got it right! I am sure that the next generation of bluegill fishermen will not stop with you, BW!

Very nice BW. I'm sure your Granddad smiled when you caught that big BG.
