Matt,

Those pictures are Mullet-tastic!

LOL, that's another topic altogether! Where I grew up in Rhode Island a man wasn't a man unless he had killer hockey hair.  ;D

Great nostalgia thread...

Man you guys are so lucky to have a grandfather or a father, even a grandmother introducing you to fishing! I introduced myself at the age of 8, when i saw the rods in kmart. Then i found out my cousin was into fishing and here i am now. I don't have any pics... :'(

In my youth now. Everyone in my family fishes, I have a picture of when I was about 2 in my dad's lap fishing. Gotta find this picture its awesome.

Bow3022- As long as you're here now, that's all that matters.  I wonder how many people would be addicted if someone took them once.  They could have a huge passion and not even know it.

Great pics everyone, super thread!!

great pics, now i got to remember to bring the camera when i teach my niece and nephew to fish
