tumhoefer Loc: MPLS/St. PAul Minnesota
 
Took my secretary's son out for his first time ever last nite. For an hour and a half. Black and Blue Salted Large size tube in about 4 feet of water with mixed weeds/sand bottom with Bass beds all over. He just kind of "jigged" it a little and reeled in slowly at times - sheer luck but so many fish, was inevitable. I think he had fun :)
Up in Minnesota in the South Metro - Prior Lake area 67.6 water temp. Was on the same lake Friday and Sunday for over 10 hours and saw hundreds of beds and dozens of fish but only caught 2 small ones - think the pattern is changing now :)

Looks like you've got a fisherman there, something tells me it won't be his last time out. Love to see the kids hooking up with nature.
