| Took my 5 year old trolling for a couple hours last night and we managed this little guy. Funny thing is on the way to the lake he was singing musky maniac by shram band as loud as he could. Not a big fish but good times.

| That's a big fish to a kid! Compared to his height, it is a giant. Have him hold out his hands for the length of the fish, and as he get bigger, the fish will too.
Congrats on a nice fish and good memories.

My oldest son started with a flippin' stick with a small ABU 5600 on it tossing Mepps and Vibrax spinners when he was 6yr old.

| My son is 3 and has been throwing his little bulldawg or mini topper stoper all year. His favorite bait is a 6" Jake though. I can't wait till he get his first ski! I keep his drag set kinda loose because I don't want some fish to rip his pole out of his hands or worse pull him out of the boat. |
