Finally got to hit the lake!

I love to see a father take his kids out fishing. They'll never forget the experience. When I was about Ryder's age out neighbor too me perch fishing--we came home with a whole whack of fish. That was 60 some years ago, and I can still remember that day.
Congratulations to Ryder.

Thanks John! You're right he will be that one! This kid is the most caring person I've ever met my life! And on top of that... Do you see the look on that face? That's confidence. I hope he never loses it!

Jeff, it's crazy ......it's been about a 5-year debacle at this Lake! We used to tear crappie up over there. All white crappie!They went in and did some Lake management and it really screwed things up. Now we're getting back to the numbers that we used to see but they are all black crappie and small! And there's a lot of cover, a lot of weeds, and a lot of algae in this Lake. So even the white crappie look like they are black crappie because of the cover they have. The more cover the darker they get. So when you get a black crappie they black black! Just beautiful!! We only caught 2 white ones last night!

That is great they got in on some terrific fishing action. That is a big plus if he is tying his own knots already.
Great father you are ! ! !

Thanks man! You know....im not sure how it works but I'm constantly telling him to tie his shoes!!! But give that boy a fishing line and his knot is solid!!!( that's probably my fault for spending more time on fishing knots then shoe knots LOL)! Hey whatever! Grab them boots and slip them on! Time to get to the lake man!! Lol!!
