Boy tames Snook.

Hi all, 

fishing has been great, catching not so much... lol.

Jack wanted to come early morning snook hunting with me and landed a dandy. The fish hit my weedless set up 3 times with no hook up so I changed us both over to 3/8oz swimbait jig head with a 3.5” Berkeley Ripple Shad in the tried and trusted pearl/pink. 3 minutes later I hear Jack yelling and turn around to see something on his line almost pulling him over. I had to use every ounce of self control not to take the rod from him even though he asked and was a little bit panicky, he thought it might be a shark and was scared. He did a superb job of taming the fish and was a little bit pumped, so pumped in fact that we ended up leaving 5 minutes later because he wanted to tell his mum!

I didnt salt water fish until I was 26 years old...putting a kid that young on salt water fish is not fair because hes never going to want to catch a boring pickerel ever again lol

Dont you dare get him on some tarpon, ill call the authorities

Beautiful and windy - fantastic snook, what a chunker.  Your fish appears to be a lizard fish, nasty set of teeth.  What other fish did you catch?
