Kids and fishing are two things that go hand in hand when talking about outdoor activities. Fishing is a fairly easy sport to introduce kids to and fairly inexpensive as well. One doesn't need any of that fancy equipment or even a boat as there are many shoreline opportunities that allow access to fishing areas. A plain hook and bobber with a worm can produce hours of entertainment as well as some artificial bait that work very well also. Most outlet stores have fishing packages that you can purchase that have all of the essential items that you would need to experience a day of fishing. Any size fish, big or small, will be a trophy in kids eyes so don't worry about finding those big fish. Biggest thing is getting a fishing rod into a kids hand and a fish on the hook and this will hook those kids to fishing for life.

My 10 year old son has been begging me to take him fishing! I can't wait to get him out there. I hope that it is as much fun for him as he is thinking it will be. We were supposed to go a few weeks ago, but it didn't happen.
It's going to be fun and I am looking forward to some one on one time with him.
I hope it will be better than my first fishing trip.

Sounds like a good plan Doug, take it simple and try and fish an area that has plenty of fish that way the action will keep on going and will keep his interest as well. Good luck fishing and hope you catch a partner for life.
