Anyone else get out to the lake when they can? Taking my 10 year old for his first real fishing trip. Bought him his own rod and everything. Honestly more excited than he is. We're hitting up Miller's Lake Saturday morning. If anyone knows good spots there let me know. Don't care if we catch anything really, just want to spend the time with him before he thinks dad's boring.
Love this. Could be a future tradition for you guys. Throw in a Studio Ghibli movie night when you get back as a celebration haha.
That's awesome you got him his own rod for his first time. Those early fishing memories stick with them forever. Hope you two catch something good out there.
First fishing trip is such a big deal. Your 10 year old is gonna remember this forever. Bring snacks, be patient with tangles, and just enjoy the time together.
Nothing beats teaching your kid to fish. Let me know if you need any tips for keeping a 10 year old entertained if the fish aren't biting.
There's something about being out on the water with your kids. Pure magic. Hope he catches something but honestly the time together is the real catch here.

Nothing beats teaching them something hands-on like fishing. Getting a 10 year old excited about the outdoors is worth way more than any screen time. Have fun out there!
