Jelly Belly 86 Report post Posted May 24, 2016 Monday afternoon while sitting at the landing at White Lake waiting for others and their boat. A gentlemen and his family showed up as they were out for a ride. The gentlemen works with my wife so his son asked to go for a boat ride as he is 10 and has never been in a boat so I threw a life jacket on him and said let's go! As we where out he mentioned he has never caught a fish so when went back after a 10 min boat ride my friends were ready with there boat so I offered the young guy to come his parents said ok as my buddy's wife works him too and she was there in the boat I was waiting for so off we went with the young guy. Well for never catching a fish on his life he caught one yesterday and this is the result!! Boy was he one happy guy!! 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bear 77 Report post Posted May 25, 2016 Great story, we were just talking about this kind of thing in the shop today. We decided it is the responsibility of all us old coots to mentor these young fishermen and fisher ladies. Who knows they could become the next big Canadian Tournament fisherperson. After all fishing is better than being in trouble or sitting in front of the X box all day. Bear 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jelly Belly 86 Report post Posted May 25, 2016 Yes they got a pic. He was sure pleased. On way home we couldn't get through highway was closed between marathon and white lake at the mine. Forest fire. He was so pumped wanted that road to be closed all night so he could sleep in camper all night. He was so funny. He asked can I come with yas more cause this is a adventure!! Lol he had us in stitches. So we all agreed when we alldo a family camping fish weekend again we will get him and bring him so he can experience Camino.
