Well today was a big one--- the first solo father/son fishing trip!<br />We drove all the way down to Guntersville dam, looked around, and finally decided that wasn&#39;t the place for us. I just couldn&#39;t find a spot that looked both baby-safe and fish-catching-promising. We ended up leaving and heading back to a little spot about 5 minutes from the house- a little spot on the bank just east of ditto landing. <br />Fished crickets for bream on an ultralight and cut bait on a big cat rod for under 2 hours, but still managed 12 keeper bream (biggest was 1lb 3 oz), one dink flathead, and the big one, a 6lb 10oz flathead. GREAT experience for both of us. Elijah loved it. He turns four months old on the 29th. Figured it was high time for a father/son trip. Enjoy the pics.<br /><br />That last pic was taken immediately after he farted. That&#39;s my boy!
