EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

well this weekend my boy had a friend stay , the boy has never been fishing before or hunting so I told him I would put him on the best fishing trip hes ever had , he was pumped , we had no issues catching bait , {live shad } , the boats were stacked up on the river , we went up river to my favorite spots and  tied up , I rigged the poles for carolina rig , the fish were chewing on the bait but slow , so I started changing the rig on my pole to see if I could find what would work , {BINGO } I started catching them every cast so then I started rigging there poles the same way and my wife helped the boy learn the way, the boys caught so many that there rist were hurting , my boys freind couldnt catch anymore , he quit , my boy fished until the last bait was gone , we caught in the hundreds , the kids were yelling I got a big one a lot and every boat around us was tring to get close to us , I was happy I could show the boy something we charish so much , the outdoor lifestyle and I bet he will never forget the time he went fishing with his buddy colton

Way to put em on the fish Bob. Im sure Coltons friend will be talking about it for a while. And There isn't much more fun  fishing out there  than getting on a school of sandies. Should've rigged up the snagging gear and put him on something!!   I sure respect the way you keep your boy out in the woods. My dad did it with me, and I can't wait till my boy is old enough to tag along.

My only question is : When is the fish fry?? Lol

I let them all go , I dont like to eat  them , i clean some sometimes for the amigos but the kids were enought  but the blues are fixen to due there thing and its on , we will fill the freezer up in the the next 3 or 4 weeks , if you would like to go just holler and we will make a run , there was hogs were we were fishing , it was hard to fish and not jump out and look for fresh sign

Good pics Bob, Im sure that young man had a heck of a time fishing for the first time!!

Mom and Dad you all did good with those kid's keep up the good work we need more of your kind. Good job kids
