First Fish - This is my son posing with the first fish he ever caught. He was 3 years old at the time. The fish was 13 inches. We just went to this little river down by the rest area. It was late April and still a little too cold to expect to catch much of anything, but Andrew wanted to go. So Grandpa and I decided to take him just for the bonding experience. Imagine our surprise when in less than 20 minutes Andrew had caught this one. We went on to catch two more.
