Oh Grandpa, I love fishing like I think people love other people
Took my 5 year old grandson fishing yesterday and luckily he was catching one fish after another. Soon as we would get the line back in the water he had another. After about an hour of that he said to me what I posted in the subject line. Ain't that something?

Here is the thread I started about him after he was born:

Here is one I posted about him when he was about two years old:

Cheers :)

All on night crawlers.

7. That Rocks!
I really love to fish too. But it kicks ass when you can get a kid catching them one after another.

5. Keep making those memories, Grandpa
My husband started taking our kids fishing when they were just three or four years old. They're all grown up now, but they all say some of their fondest childhood memories were fishing with Dad.

6. You should get him into fly fishing.
It's like an addiction.
