Good stuff!

Nothing like fishing with kids.

But be aware - it doesn't mean you kid(s) will get the same bug you have.
Trust me, I know that the 1st hand, it's my cancer wound

Fishing has been running in my family for 3 generations...
I've started taking my son out from an early age, and he caught pretty much every kind of fish we catch in our local waters... He never really showed too much of an interest to go back. Like it's cool and all, but given any other choice - he'll pass on going fishing.

I remember a distinct moment when I realized this kid was never going to be big on fishing. He was maybe 8, I took him out for some PM halibut fishing along Zuniga Jetty in SD Bay. We were not there maybe even 30 minutes, he started whining "dad, when are we going home?..." I kept brushing him off with "when we catch a big fish".
Soon after, he hooks up. He brings it to color, and all excited I say "big halibit!!!" It wasn't really that big, 10-12# from what I recall, but I tried to make it more exciting for him. We didn't even bring the fish on board, the fish is hanging down below the boat - right away he responded - "ok, can we go home now"....

People told me he may get back into it once he gets older...
He's 19 now - I'm still waiting.

We still got some great memories
