Cheap Fishing yet FUN

Do you like outdoors? How about fishing? I have some ideas to share about fishing, but not in a fancy way. I am talking about economical way - bank fishing. Our 6 year old son wanted to fish, so we took him to a lake. This lake is about 50 miles from where we live, my husband decided to go over to this lake because they are only exclusive for fishing. We got up so early, packed  sandwiches that night before, filled up the coolers with drinks, and fixed some snacks, packed some hand sanitizer, change of clothes in case we get wet especially if you have little ones, insect repellent, paper towel, and some disposable utensils. I handled this par,t and my husband took care of the fishing gear. Don’t forget to bring rain suit in case the weather won’t permit us from fishing. So, we all packed and so elated to be on the lake. We left early that morning to get there, and get started. On the way, over a halfway there I realized that I did not bring my purse, therefore, I don’t have my driver’s license, and without it -you can’t get a fishing license. Duh I was so mad at myself because for all the things, I left the very important thing and I am not going back because of that , we’d just wasting our time traveling. So we got there and my husband got his license and since our son is under 12 years old he doesn’t need to get a license so I agreed to be his helper. My husband bought him a telescoping fiber glass pole (10 ft), he bought it from Academy Sports. We love this store it has everything that you can think of if you are going outdoors. At first Kyle our 6 year old son so anxious to fish and every time he pull it his line get tangled or got caught on the limbs. We ended up untying and detangling the line. His first caught was the most exciting part and we all cheering for him. After the first caught he was unstoppable the only problem is he won’t touch the fish nor the worm. We used live bait worms and I myself hated the worm either so it would take for me to hook the worm in because I don‘t like to touch them. Then I forgot to bring my gloves so I used paper towel nor leaves to hold the worm in. The entire period of fishing I did not touch a worm because it will make me sick. So our son Kyle has been catching them with out touching it. He has a weak stomach. Glenn ended up catching fewer than Kyle because he helped Kyle a lot. They caught more fish than what we expected. But there is a limit per person only allowed to take 20 fish so in between Kyle and Glenn they caught about 25 good ones, we threw the little ones back to the water. It was so much fun to watch them catch fish. This lake is in Bibb county State park.. It is close every Monday and open during National Holidays. My husband is such an avid fisherman he has all the fishing lure that you can think of just for bass fish only. This is the cheapest way to fish yet FUN.
