WTG, little Bullhead-Slayer!   

Nice!

bait makin' machine! Wait till he hooks into a mackerel or smelt!

i had his little pole rigged with two salmon egg hooks tipped with squid, i used this bull for bait, no bites on it though. do those things work good for bait? that was the first time i tried one.

I've heard 'buts don't like those bullheads, but I've also heard they sometimes work...

I think I recognize that pole as a Spiderman unit.   

 

 I hope my kids light up like that when they catch a fish too.
This is how it all begins.

he was a happy boy, but we had a down moment about 20 minutes after this shot. He had his pole sitting in my adjustable rod holder and over it went. we had to cry for awhile until dad assured him we can get another.

Great striper bait!!

Great job dad!

Absolutely priceless 

I know I say this every time somebody posts up about their kid catching a first fish but I cannot wait till it's my turn to take the little girl out and return triumphant with pics like that. I should just make that last line my sig.
