4/28/2007 Got to take my boy
Posted: April 29th, 2007, 8:11 am
My son is down for a few days. With not much going on yesterday, his Momma told him he needed to go fishin. We got to The Fort around 7:30. Launched and headed out. There wasn't enough water to get in close, so we started the morning in an area I had caught some trout a few weeks earlier. Caught 9 keeper trout while waiting for the tide to rise. Most were caught on jerk baits. Caught a 24" spanish, also. I sure didn't expect a spanish up shallow.
When the water was up enough we headed to the redfish hole. The wind was out of the north, making it difficult to spot fish, and handle the boat. But we managed 5 keeper reds.
Had some things to take care of at home in the afternoon, so we were back on the trailer by 2:30.
My son always has to turn all of our trips into a challenge. He keeps telling me, BEFORE every trip, how he's gonna put it on me. When we got home he went straight to his Momma and cried on her shoulder. His old man put it on him again.
I miss fishing with my son.

my son has a girlfreind, he's 19, so fishing is low priority for him right now.
