Fishing with a partner

[Crankbait]

So I love fishing alone not because I don’t enjoy company but my boat isn’t that large I like to sling to the side with 15” to 2’ of line hanging. I recently took out a kid who I have been working with (to get his GED and yes he’s legal) but also who wants to get into bass fishing. I fish a jon boat club….single man club but there is a team trail too so I told him we would start fishing that. Thought that I would hate it not because of him (he’s really a cool kid with a good sense of humor) but because of the crowded conditions and the fact that I would have to teach a little and start throwing overhand……not my favorite casting. I’m amazed at how quick he has picked up using a bait caster and I amazed at how much I enjoyed fishing with someone. Teaching him to fish away from the bank we were the only boat to catch fish and he got his first bass….. 5lb 9oz. I think I was more excited than him. Just really surprised at what I had been missing fishing with a partner. Of course didn’t pre charge the GoPro so missed his catch but got pictures
