Grandson Sam, 2 1/2 trying to help his Dad and Grandpa catch some crappies today:

This is fun!

Don't talk to me - this is serious business!

I think I got one!

Do we have to go already?

[hendenhook]

Finnbay - it was a great weekend to be on the ice, neat shots of the next generation, looks like he had one on - did it get away?

[finnbay]

Whether it was real or phantom, it was real in his mind and darn, he lost it!

Cute shots, Ken. It looks like he's got the makings of a real fisherman. I can't wait until my grandson is old enough to get in the boat with Grandpa.

Priceless! I do hope you print those and frame them for your son and grandson. Nothing better than a photo of kids fishing, I still have mine in my office. I look and at them all the time and wonder where did the time go!

Those are great pcitures of your grandson. Looks like he was really getting into it!

Super cute! We'll done, Ken.

Great shots, Ken!

Love kid fishing shots.. and these are great! Thanks for sharing!

[mountaindew]

Nice set. Keep those pictures! It's even better in a couple of years from now when you look at them again, after he's all grown up. Brings great memories!

Those are really special Ken!! Looks like he had a great time fishing with Grandpa.

Great shots Ken! Those will be fun to pull out in years to come.

Great pics. Can't wait until my son is old enough to go out with me.

Those are some awesome shots. Looks like the grandson had some fun out there with you. Some of the best pictures I have seen on the site.

Thanks all for the nice comments. I've been twice blessed - being able to go through the experience of teaching my son to fish and about the outdoors, and now just beginning to do the same with my grandson.

Just a post script to my original post. This is my son when he was about 2 1/2. Second time around for me. Can anyone guess where this well-known (at least around Ely) spot might be? Bonus points available!

Kiwishiwa River on the Birch Lake Side.... Just a guess.

[finnbay]

Nope - try again!

Prairie Portage...

[finnbay]

A-hah! We have a winner! Sucker Lake end!
