Nice going John and Son! That’s got to feel better than getting a 50 for the cup.

Blitzseeker 08-19-2010 08:39 AM

Good stuff....I'm hoping to check that off the list with my boys very soon as well!

WAY TO GO LIAM!
I guess that certainly qualifies for a great night John.
Congrats to both of you :D:D:D
I have that same plug, guess I should put it in my rotation :hidin:

That's the way to show your dad how to catch fish Liam!:uhuh:

JohnR 08-19-2010 10:12 AM

Yep, lots of fun. Here is Liam reeling in his first fish of the night that I hooked and handed to him.

Rappin Mikey 08-19-2010 10:14 AM

SWEET!

spinncognito 08-19-2010 10:26 AM

Much better than a 50 for the cup. Very nice!

JackK 08-19-2010 10:28 AM

:kewl::kewl:

First keeper, and from shore to boot... way to go.

Fishoholic 08-19-2010 10:45 AM

ain't nothin better :)

tysdad115 08-19-2010 10:47 AM

Great Story, Congratulations! Tough to tell who is more proud, Dad or Son? I have a 9 year old fish addict too....makes me smile looking over my shoulder at 3AM and seeing him cast out looking for a monster. Kind of puts life in perspective. Good Job Liam and John.

Mr. Sandman 08-19-2010 10:58 AM

wow, he is getting big!
nice job! There will be many more nights like that but the first is special.

Raven 08-19-2010 11:00 AM

Rockfish9 08-19-2010 11:22 AM

Thanks for shareing John... anyfish is a good catch...you should be proud and so should he... the account of the night brought back memories of my Sons( and daughters) first "keepers".. thank you.

MrHunters 08-19-2010 11:24 AM

Nebe 08-19-2010 11:46 AM

Awesome, Congrats!!!

jim sylvester 08-19-2010 01:22 PM

great story

Mike P 08-19-2010 01:25 PM

Way to go, Liam. I wish I would have left home sooner, so I could have seen it first-hand.

bassackward 08-19-2010 01:26 PM

That's awesome and what it's all about. Way to pay it forward for the next generation.

Rockport24 08-19-2010 01:47 PM

that is just awesome stuff and that is indeed what this crazy obsession of ours is all about

Saltheart 08-19-2010 02:00 PM

Congrats to both Dad and son for Liam coming into his own as a fisherman. An event you'll both remmeber for a lifetime.

Now there will be a long time of both of you holding your own . Then inevitably the time will come when Liam has to start grabbing the leader for his dad , then maybe casting the heavy stuff out for him , etc. :)

Offshore24 08-19-2010 02:06 PM

Great job guys.

Zeno 08-19-2010 02:44 PM

Congrats Liam...welcome to a lifetime of insomnia
