Holy moly! Are you tellin' me a two-year-old can cast that pole? You are doing a great job teaching him or he's a natural, or both.

Cavs1123 · 06-06-09, 05:41 PM

wow! that kid has some talent

BassinID · 06-06-09, 05:51 PM

Thats awesome, gatta make daddy proud

Bassboss · 06-06-09, 08:24 PM

WTG backwards! Way to get him into fishing fast!

Nitro 640 · 06-06-09, 10:45 PM

How did you teach him to cast?

flfireman · 06-06-09, 10:48 PM

Just a suggestion. I got a cheap velcro bracelet with a small cord on it. Attach the bracelet to his wrist and the cord to the pole, that way if he forgets to hold on, the pole won't go swimming. I learned the hard way with one pole. By the way, that's great he's fishing at 2, my son is six and loves to go.

gang we are seeing the makings of another pro here. a 2 year old casting and making ol pop just watch,lol. see pop sitting on the bench? hahaha. kidding pal. that is truly amazing for a 2 year old to cast like he is. congrats on your retirement package. better than ours huh? hahahahaha.

REDBULLCUBAN · 06-08-09, 11:05 AM

Thats awsome! can't believe that he is doing so well at 2!

brushhog · 06-08-09, 01:32 PM

Amazing, my three year old is just learning and he doesn't look that good! Impressive!

islandbass · 06-08-09, 04:45 PM

That is awesome! If I learned anything about kids it is that they know not of limitations unless we put it on them. I guarantee he'll be using a spinning reel at 5 and a casting reel a 6 1/2. Well done, both of you.

bassackwards · 06-08-09, 05:35 PM

bassackwards · 06-08-09, 06:00 PM

just weight bass masters classic at age 7 (i'll be there to drive the boat)

Bubba_Bruiser · 06-09-09, 05:55 PM

Look at the way that kid is scanning around just like a pro. My oldest was doing it at 3, but my other one at 3, just can't get it yet. But that is awesome BA!
