Those times are priceless, get him his own for Christmas next year!   If I could take my son, I couldn't think of a better thing to spend extra $ on than time outdoors together.

After he opens the flasher, have him open the package with a new fillet knife ;-)

Love pics of kids on the ice with big smiles.  Glad you caught some fish and had fun.

Looks like a good day. My son is 5, I  started taking him out last year. He started out scooping holes and tangling lines. Now he is setting up tipups, baiting his own hook and patient enough to fish for a couple of hours if its slow. Wouldn't have it any other way, a lifetime hunting and fishing buddy.

I am begging my daughter and her boyfriend to go pikeing with me. That would give me 9 tip ups in the water. :thumbsup:
