Went out in a buddies boat in southern maine this past wknd with my 14 yr old son. We released over 20 bass. Most caught on herring, a few on plugs. Mostly small but a couple were fat 30 inchers.(not big by this crowds standards but great for us) My son had one almost spool his line, then faught it back to the boat, only to have it snap off before we could see it. He'll never forget that fish. Probably be trying to catch it the rest of his life...just like the rest of us.

glad you both had fun . and yes he will be trying to catch that one again just like the rest of us do . At least he has a goal now when it comes to going fishing .
