Bluefishin' Mission A Success!
 

My oldest son caught his first bluefish ever at the Race today! He was thrilled, as was his Dad! We plugged every nook and cranny of the Race but could not get any action topside so the boy chunked up a piece of mack and on his first cast....."fish on"!:D 5 pound blue......it made our day!

Then we bumped into Backbeach Jake there and he was fishing with Labrador 1....Fred gave my son a nifty blurple needlefish (Thanks again Fred) my son thought how great it was to get a plug like that! Then Labrador 1, upon meeting me says...."Hi....have a plug".....so he gives me a nice metal lipped swimmer he made. It is beautiful....so in return I needlefish plug him with a blurple!:) Later on I see BBJ and Labrador 1 again and Labrador 1 gives me another plug and I gave Fred one of my Goo Goo Eyes knockoffs to fish! So my son says...."The fishing was not that great, but the "lure-ing" was awesome!:laughs: Smart kid, huh?;) I have to keep a steady supply of "trade" wood in my rig I guess for swapping with you all?:eek:

A good day!:happy:

Congrats to the little guy.

Nothing is better than to be catching with yer kids:D , congrats to you guys:) johnny

:btu: :D

The smile that L'l Larry was sporting was absolutely priceless!He's a gem BigFish! Savor these days, they pass way too fast.

I know it all too well BBJ.....I have always known they would fly by just as my childhood years did. So with that knowledge, I have always been a "stop and smell the roses" kind of person.;) Chalk up another great day!:happy:

good workLarry(jr)
cook that bad boy up today and eat it:)

:kewl:

congrats to BF Jr. :claps:

Well BF, you will now have to get ready for what comes next... you getting outfished by Jr.... once my son started, there was no holding him back, off we'd go, same rods, reels, line, bait, or plugs, didn't matter, he'd be fishin' I'd be wishin', (he seems to remember a little of me cursin' and him laughin' ;) , and me laughin' too)
and then before you know it, you hardly fish together anymore... so enjoy every minute... was just talking about this with another grumpy old phart last night, his son would give him them 10 to one trips too!
