The water began to boil on occasion and we wondered what it was....and the idea was confirmed. The 3 year old hooked into a 6lb channel...my brother had to winch it in with a snoopy rod and light test since the boy had 1 arm...and was 3. The line broke at the shoreline but I got the tail.

We no more than had it dry and my nephew found himself in the same predicament. After 5 minutes of smoking plastic gears, whining rod and laughing boy....we landed him(He did it, I held the rod steady) a 5lb channel.

Those 2 now have a fine photo for their man-book.

I’ll bet that was a blast.
