Get him a bunch of packs of fish bites and some small hooks with a top and bottom rig and send him down to hang with my boy. Him and his buddies spent all fall fishing from docks and beaches in the community. They caught big perch (my son has a photo of a 13"er he got one afternoon), spot, small blues and small rock. I think they fished almost everyday for two months straight. They got the fever fishing with me over the summer.
I need to get a spot pen so they can fill it for me :) |
and by the way....Why would anyone ever use anything else but a beetlespin or a super duper ?
They come in various types...Clam spins, peeler spins, grass shrimp spins, you name it ! |

A decent set of polarized sunglasses would be a great idea though....and they double as safety glasses. :D. And errant hook in some flesh hurts, but losing an eye is forever. Quote:
Fishbites = great idea. |
Best part about getting your boy a tackle bag....
He's a great kid ! :) |
Get him a 27 Judge or a 25 Maycraft to keep his tackle bag in:D.
They are only young once:eek:. 5th (Marty) |
Now you are talkin !

Spot, glad to hear it. BUT don;t discount the barb mashing. For one you promote catch and release, and two, no matter how mature your son is for his age, " **** happens". Happy Holidays

But I know he'd be happy if his old man got a sweet ride like that....:D I think he's gonna' end up with a small skiff sometime around his 13th birthday. He can handle my bass boat pretty well, and with no keel, more speed than he'll ever need and tricky trim controls they're a little more difficult to handle than most other small boats. |
When my son was 14 he had a 15ft skiff with a 15 hp chrysler motor. He thought he was king of the river until his 16th birthday and he discovered girls and cars:D.
