triplec Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Any day I can get my Dad out on the water is a good day! He is looking at 80 soon so it is not often the weather and his health provides the opportunity. We got out for a few hours today and although the bite wasn't red hot he did land a beauty.

Iwannafish Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 It's always nice to spend some quality time with your father, none of us are getting any younger and you never know what tomorrow will bring. Take advantage of those oppurtunities when you can. Real nice fish, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hferrell87 Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Very nice! I took my dad out once so far in Mosquito Lagoon and was fortunate to get him on a school of about 30 Reds that were all very aggressive and ate pretty my a shiny hook. They were all standing on their heads, tailing everywhere and had him throw a suspending twitch bait through the middle of them and they went crazy on it. He landed his first red that measured 25" and am happy to say that he loved fishing for Reds. He kept saying how crazy it was with how strong they pull. Thanks for sharing the pics! Hope your father had an awesome time, looks so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplec Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Thanks guys! I'm blessed indeed to still have both parents alive and here in town. Catching fish is just icing on the cake when I can spend time with them. Good stuff for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
