Isaac's first fish

[TunaHead]

My brother and I took his boys Owen(6) and Isaac(4) fishing in the Humboldt bay on Saturday. Owen is getting to be an old hand at this but Isaac had never caught a fish. My mission for the day was to get him connected with a surf perch and start the fishing addiction. It was a little cool but the wind cooperated. I'll let the pictures tell the story...

First, a bit of a hike to get over to the bay. Your's truly in the middle flanked by the Owen on the left and Isaac on the right.



Sometimes fishing requires intense focus and concentration.


At other times a more relaxed approach is in order.


Either way, persistence pays off. Owen's first red tail.


MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!! Isaac, on the right with his first fish ever.


Fishing is never just about the fish.

Nice job TH.

With the way kids are going these days with video games and text messaging, I am afraid that there will be a shortage of fishermen in 20 years.

Thanks for doing your part to ensure the future of the fisherman.
