congrats!
Ya know not to ramble or anything but I just wanted to share a lil anecdote:
I fished a good amount with my dad when I was younger, when we went to nantucket for a few weeks during august and july almost every summer during school. But if i remember correctly, I was always a little bastard about it, complaining and what not. I had NO CLUE how good I had it then, and I cringe at the thought of hearing myself whine, and the trouble I made for my dad......
He dragged me all over that freakin island probly against my will most the time during un godly hours; and now I regret saying no to additional trips we could have gone on every day I fish or think about fishng. And he aint even dead yet!
Don't worry if your kid won't initially like fishing. Force him to go DAMN IT! It will take hold of him. And he'll thank you for it in the end.....

All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.

Thanks Guys! Funny, I remember the very first time my Dad took me fishing when I was 5, I was hooked for life and enjoy it even more than he does. I thought to myself today, “Wouldn’t it be nice in a few years if the 3 of us (Me, my Dad, & my Son) went fishing” Now that would be special. Here is a pic of the keeper....
