I have had this video for a while. Love the kid, love the fish, love the reaction. That right there is what it is all about!

Once again, you have plenty of time to participate in our Take ‘Em Fishing Challenge. As if you need any other reason to find a kid, someone new, and take ’em fishing.

Do it. Do it this weekend. Your lives will be better for it!
