Kid slam on the Cooper

Took the neighbor kid out today. He’s fished a few times with us and has been a pleasure. We fished the main channel of the Cooper and some creeks, and through a cold, windy day pieced together a decent outing.
The rookie stole the day with a February slam, capped by a 19.5" trout! He was a redfish shy of a double slam! All fish caught on MM/jighead combo.

My boy kicked us off with a keeper trout.

Thanks, Penny. Your comments are always heartwarming and welcome, but to be the one who gets that on your 10,000 post is beyond an honor!:smiley:

Nice fish guys…:sunglasses:. Way to get out there on a crappy day. My six year old son and I down here in Beaufort hooked up and headed to the ramp but I thought it was gonna be a lil to much for the lil guy. (he’s battling a lil cold too):frowning_face: But i think the winds will be down a lil tomorrow. Gonna give it another try. Nice report. Come visit us over on the Beaufort/HH forum sometime. Fish On!!!

Great to see Dad’s out on the water with the kids! Great day for you…fish were extra!

Go Cocks!

Thats one big trout there. Did you happen to hang it from a scale? Good job.

A wise man once said “Do as I say not as I do” Good advice when I tell you that.

Way to go Vin!

That’s awesome. I know what they will be talking about tomorrow at school.

Nothing makes a fish bigger than almost being caught.

Good post and pictures, as usual. Congratulations on what looks like an awesome day.

You’re a good Dad, Vinn. Your boy will always remember those trips. My Dad hung onto a many of branch keeping the boat where my brother and I could clean out a bream bed. Good times.
