What an awesome pic, JD. That smile is priceless. He has a right to be proud, that is one nice rainbow. Are you having it mounted? Congrats, and high 5s, to the youngun.

They look like salmon when they get that big.

Nice catch. Image

No - we did not have it mounted. But it sure was tasty!

He is 6, and this is the biggest fish he has landed where he had done it all - baited, casted, and reeled it in. It took a couple of good runs on him while he was reeling it in, but he looked just like ole Roland Martin up there playing it out. After that - all he wanted to do was fish. I do believe he is hooked for life.

JD, you should be proud of that youngun. That is one fine fish. No need to mount when you have that picture. Where did he catch it?

Great pic JD. I love when them young 'uns get into it like that. Congrats to the little man on a great fish.
