I Cast, They Catch

Bubba_Bruiser · 03-20-11, 12:53 AM

Me and the boys sneaked off this morning for a little fishing. But thank goodness it was for bass. No cleaning worm spuzz and liver slime off of everything. I bought "Mean Gene" a new rod for his birthday and he has been begging to go since he got it last week. He also got a fine assortment of baits and his own tackle box. He picked out a small, some kind of Wal-Mart brand jerkbait, and had a good blow up on his first cast. "Boogie" picked out a small Rebel Pop-R and had a smash on his 3rd or 4th cast. This place had a ton of grass in it and they started mowing the yard, so it got to where I would throw it for them and they would reel it in. Then they got bored when it slowed down, so I told them I would cast and hand it over. We caught 2 on a Berkley Beatle spin and 3 on a Sluggo. I spotted 2 fish I would guess around #5, but they spotted me and spooked pretty quick. I wish I could have tied them in to one of those, but oh well, due time. I took this picture and it reminded me of a mini Jimmy Houston (Tanner's haircut) and Roland Martin (Barrel chest). Look at that arm extention, learning already.

I really hope they take to it. I try not to burn them out and when they say they are ready to go, I try to encourage them to stay, but if they want, we leave. Hopefully we can stay in the bass ponds and out of the catfish, that is too much like work hahahahaha.
