Gotta share this. Longtime friend brought his 3yr old by to catch his first fish. Dad set him up with all the best equipment money could buy - no expenses spared - note the authentic Sponge Bob Square Pants fishin pole! (I think it was the magnum model, but I'm not sure)
First, the ceremonial "cutting off of the plastic practice fish"

Hangin out with Dad, enjoyin some quiet time on the pond...

All of a sudden...

Now keeping in mind this kid has had no formal training except with the plastic fish, check out this hook set!

And just like that, the kid lands a hefty 7-incher!

Topped it off with a quick paddle around the pond before nap-time...

I believe fishermen are born every day. Anybody got a kid that needs to catch their first fish, bring 'em by!
