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

WAY TO GO LIAM!
I guess that certainly qualifies for a great night John.
Congrats to both of you 
I have that same plug, guess I should put it in my rotation 
That's the way to show your dad how to catch fish Liam!  |

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

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.

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

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. |
