Not only the style of fishing a better way of introducing the sport to your kid. YOU my friend will intro your kid to a LIFELONG pursuit of excellence with nature and the knack of study with nature. Providing, that is, YOU! become educated enough to lead him thru this process. Give him what he needs to accomplish this task. Lead thru example. You will grow with him within it. I did with my dad. It made us close, and has kept us that way for over 40 years. Good luck with your passion and your endevours.Seriously, I already have to be very careful. Im obsessed with striper fishing and have been for several years. I decided to start fly fishing freashwater as it will allow me to do what I love (fish) while spending time with the family on camping trips and hikes. Standing on the end of a rock jettie at 3 in the morning is not really a family activity. Not to say you wont find me doing it as there are few comparison to hooking a large bass on a plug, but I think this style of fishing is probably going to be a better way to introduce the little one to the sport in a few years. Then the wife will be in big trouble
. Your right guys. Fishing does create a unique bond between two people. It was lucky enough to share it with my Dad. Unfortunatly, we both live on opposite side of the globe so fishing togeather these days is something that is few and far between. But it is somthing that I am truly gratefull to have spent time with him doing when I was a kid. Fishing teaches you alot about life and yourself. I would not be without it and neither will my kid.
