I used to beg my brother and Dad to take me fishing when I was a kid and I think I actually convinced them 3 times in my entire growing up. Once I even got to float the mighty Skookumchuck!

In the last 4 years, thanks to my best friend taking the time to teach me, I fish a lot! I'm taking my son out and he's almost 7 and learning to fish and loving it.

He wants a rod and baitcasting reel for his birthday even. Definately time well spent together and he will be fishing for a long time to come. He even stomached several trips this summer to Westport and can brag that he never puked. LOL

They had logging as a credit class where I went to school (podunk Elma) not too long ago, so fishing isn't that far off. LOL

Would be a good elective. Fishing has taught me, among other things, patience, concentration, and determination. I still can't tell a rock from a fish, but I keep going out there and trying.
