After a fun filled day on the lake pulling the nephews on a tube, my dad and I took my 3 year old nephew in the river in a flat bottom jon boat to try and snag some catfish.  We pulled some of the green and black caterpillars off the tree leaves to use for some live bait.  Pulled up into the hole and anchored up just before dark.  Within about 40 minutes, we had 3 decent sized smallies in the boat, a nice bluegill and about 3 or 4 smallies jump off.  No catfish to speak of, but i preferred the smallies anyways!!

 

He gave us one of those picture perfect moments that you could only expect from a commercial or a movie or something....  after the second fish was boated, he looks at my dad and asks "Paw, when are we going fishing again?"

 

It was a great time for all of us, but my nephew especially.  

 

Good work Justin.....that's a creative bait idea! 

Cool.

Nice! 

Congrats to the little guy!

Great times thanks for sharing!

Even though he's just 3, he'll remember that for a long time!

Memories that last a Life Time.

 

Very Nice.
