My son is "hooked" on fishin! What a blast! I picked up my first fly rod from Orvis a month ago and he has been worked is two foot Zebco. Today was his 8th birthday and he got his wish of a slightly larger rod and of course asked to hit the river. We went an hour north to Dam 5 on the Potomac and had tons of fun. 12 smallies wading back and forth through the river. On the last cast of the day he sent a spinner right at the dam hit a massive bass. He got it about 4 feet away before the line snapped on his little rod.
His fun helps soften the fact that I'm still clueless with my fly rod, but learning. I was excited to get a nice top water hit from a smallie with a bumble bee!
Not a bad day!
