One sunny Saturday afternoon, a little boy wanted nothing more than to go fishing with his dad. Dad was reading a book in his favorite chair as comfortable as could be. The boy was persistent. He would ask, "Dad, can we go fishing?" His Dad would reply, "Sure, give me a few more minutes." Fifteen minutes would pass and the boy would ask, this time with a little more enthusiasm, "Dad, is it time to go now?" Dad replied, "You're not dressed yet. Go get dressed and then we'll go." Two minutes later the boy returned dressed and ready to go. "Dad, I'm dressed, can we go now?" Again the reply, "Almost bud. Oh wait, you don't have a hat. Better go get a hat on." In a flash the boy got his hat on and returned, only to find out that the poles and tackle box had to be prepared. Another fifteen minutes would go by and then dad said without skipping a beat, "C'mon Brev, I've been waitin' on you this whole time. Can we please go fishing now?"
All that waiting paid off! They returned in under one hour having caught one large mouth bass, one channel catfish, and one flathead catfish weighing in at just under 3 pounds making one heck of a Saturday lunch! Great job Breven! All your patience paid off!

Wow! That's some impressive fish! Sounds like they've got a good fishing spot!
holy cow. Chris is jealous. He said if we didn't take a nap with me and clara that would have been his fish. I told him yeah right. chris is going to take lessons from breven.
I love fish stories! I "shot" (with a bb gun) my first catfish at about 6 or 7 and have loved fishing ever since (with a pole now, that is). Glad dad and son had a good time!
ps--love that you have a "Weezer" song on your playlist!!!
