Took Rusty to a farm pond when he was about 3 years old and we caught a small blue gill,about 2 inches long and put it on his cane pole with a bobber,told him he had a fish on,after we went home he told his Grandma he caught a fish and she said how big was it?he spread his hands about 8 inches apart and said this big, we fishermen learn early!

Yeah, phones with camera's kind of ruined a good fishing story. Now if there's no pictures you know it's a fish tail.lol

In fish pics, look for how big the guys knuckles are. That tells you if he's holdin it close to the camera or not.
