The Natural’s turning 2!

It’s hard to believe, but my little dude Coop is about to have his second birthday. We celebrated the big day in style a little early with a little old-school bluegill fishing at a local park pond.

Four-pound test, a No. 12 hook and some Wonder Bread…yep, that’s how we roll…

Anyway, the little man hooked a bunch of ‘gills and when asked later about how big they were, he spread his hands about 16 inches apart. That’s my boy — Clearly he’s learning some of the finer points of being a true angler!
