My Dad!
These pics were taken I think about 1968? I was about 5 or 6 and my Dad's company (Hood's Milk) was featuring him in their newsletter and they sent a photographer out to take some pics! I am quite lucky we were given the original 8 by 10 photos which I have and I cherish for obvious reasons!
Pic 1: We were a swimming family and my Dad was a great swimmer, won many awards in his day, is in the "L" Street Hall of Fame in Southie, gave much of his time to the Boys Clubs of Boston for many years when he was young! Also coached Men's swim teams at Tuft's University and Brandies! Here is a pic of my Dad strapping on my new swim fins!!
Pic 2: Watching my Dad make a shot on our old basement pool table!
Pic 3: Me with my Dad and my Mom! Who do you think was "Dad's shadow"?

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole

To some these pieces of art can be priceless, to me they are worth what you catch with them.

Posted this one before. This is dad from a while back. He can't really do it anymore. I sure do miss fishing with him.

This was my grandfather with my son two years ago. My grandfather passed several months after this picture.
The second picture is my son with his first fish. A nice Western Mass. brookie. The same river I caught my first trout as a young lad.

Here's my future fisherman. He absolutely LOVES the water as I'm sure you can tell by his expression.
Pictures were very limited while I was growing up, although my dad was my tutor from a very early age,,, he was not a fan of the camera. Not infront of it, nor behind it... 
However, I plan on taking as many pictures as possible so that my son can look back years from now and have the photographs rejuvenate his memory.....
Thanks for the chance to win Bigfish....Thanks PERIOD!  |

As I said my Dad won many swimming competitions in his day! We still have his awards/trophies and they number well over 50....some heavy duty hardware too! Swimming was always my Dad's thing but we have "the water" in common! He swam always, competitive diving, he was also a "Frogman" in the US Navy! |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Awesome thread, Larry! Great pics from everyone! And CONGRATS to RIROCKHOUND!
Here's the only picture I can find of my dad, my son and myself. My dad has been my fishing partner my whole life and I don't have any pictures of us fishing. I'll be sure to get the camera out with us this year for sure.
The second pic is from 1973 on West Island with my uncle, who I still fish with a lot. This is one of my favorites.
The last one is one I posted here a few weeks back of my son and myself from this year. We're looking forward to our annual Father's Day fishing trip on Sunday (weather permitting). |
