Fishing with grandpa

[fishaholic82]

I got the chance to take my grandfather fishing this morning. He's 83 and still going strong. He has been wanting to give the catfish a break and get on some redfish and thats exactly what we got. He hoped on my boat today and one stop is all it took. Even though we got a late start this morning, we had our limit of reds and one drum at 9:15 and left them biting. Its days like today and seeing the man that instilled my love for fishing hooked up and all smiles that makes fishing so rewarding for me. I can't wait to be able to do it again.

Its really special for me cause I am the baby of the family so when I was big enough to start going out in the boat was about the time my grandpa retired. The 2 of us spent many summers together at his camp south of Berwick. He taught me almost everything I know when it comes to boats and fishing and it was amazing to be able to give him a trip he won't forget cause Lord knows I have many trips that he gave me that I'll never forget.

Thanks guys. Im just glad he is still able to do what he loves and that I get to enjoy it with him. He told me when I get back from my next hitch offshore that he wants to spend a night juglining.

Well, By Gosh, be sure and take him up on his request.

Nice report. Had me going down "Memory Lane" thinking of the fishing trips I took with both of my paw paws.

Awesome report sometimes it is more than catching fish and the moments. But it didnt hurt to put some nice fish in the boat. Awesome post!
