Our last camping trip

 This past weekend we went camping at our 5th. State Park in Mississippi. And like all the others we have been to, it was just as beautiful. We took our 1 ½ year old grandson. I went out and bought him his first fishing pole and tackle box. I took some of my old baits and took the hooks off and put them in his box. I know that he’s kind of young but I couldn’t wait anymore. He had a blast. He would take his tackle box and put it beside mine and say, Paw-Paw’s box and Gage’s box. When I took him out in the boat all he wanted to do was go fast. When I caught that first fish he was in awe. After that he would keep pointing to the water and saying fish. He didn’t catch one this time but it is a memory that I will have forever. Can’t wait till he’s big enough to go with me all the time. I guess what I’m trying to get out is don’t leave those kids at home, take them fishing. It’s how everlasting memories are built.

Pure Heaven! What I did with all my kids when they were that young and learning is just put a sinker and a bubble on and teach them how to cast with no hooks. When you hook a fish... hand the pole to the child to land it...as they get better at casting is when you put the hooks on and teach them that part of fishing. It gives them the freedom to play with casting a pole. Smiles Always "MA"
