When my son was a teenager we often couldn't seem to agree on anything or stand to be around each other. But we could always set aside our diffrences to go fishing.
Nothing better than bunch of kids who love the water. I have a 9 year old fisherman in my house and we have some of our most memorable times fishing (double hook ups on monster blue fish on light tackle/top water fishing, 3 times in a row) that neither of us could ever forget.
My old man would get home from fishing tuna a shark tournament or what have you. Give me some awesome hat or T shirt. Then get my push button zebco and my tackle box out and we would walk down to the river by our house and fish for hours. Knowing what I know now. How exhausted I am after multiple days offshore. I'm amazed he did that. Later in life he told me he had more fun catching sunnies with me but has no idea where he found the energy to walk down the damn street haha
