My fishing partner

[bulletbob]

This Christmas.. He told 2 different Santa's he wanted a new fishing rod, so Santa brought him one, with his own new tackle box, and some basic tackle.. Santa left it at Papa's house...

His name is Landon, will be 6 in about 6 weeks and is my only grandson, and I love him as dearly.. He adores fishing with papa..
couple of fish from one of our summer before last fishing trips to a local county park lake.. The bullheads we caught were massive, only one small lake we fish has them, and we have never caught a small one.. they are all better than 2 pounds..

I hope his love for fishing stays with him throughout his life, and I hope he wants me with him[while I'm still here] when he does go fishing ... bob

That is what it is all about right there!

i have a pic of my grandfather and I in a shadowbox along with his early 1900's reels and lures that were given to him by his grandfather..

Bob great job, way to keep the legacy alive. I'm convinced if more people introduced their children / grandchildren to fishing and the outdoors at an early age, taught them respect for the resources and nature in general instead of living on the internet, the world would be an incrementally better place. The smiles say it all........really great stuff! Some of the best memories in life involve days on the water with your children and or grandkids.
