First legal Butt of the year

Went fishing in the sewer yesterday with my son and my son caught this nice 33”, 15lb Butt on live chovie and 15lb test line bass rod. My son said I got a bite and then,” I think I’m stuck on the bottom”. lol Nice battle on the light gear and first legal of the year.

Nice fish!
I remember getting stuck on the bottom. I could have sworn I snagged but, I knew I was casting into a sandy bottom. I have stood on the sand at low tide, where I was casting. Then the line started to shake. The result was much better than losing my rig.

Do you fish on separate kayaks or a tandem?

I have a PA 14 and he sits on top of the bait tank lid. We sit back to back but he pretty much stands up when he’s fishing most the time. The kid is a good fisherman. He’s been fishing with me since he could hold a rod. Out fish’s me a lot lol

2 people in the Pa14

I have wanted to take my son out for a while in my PA14, but didn’t know if I would get harassed for doing so? Anyone ever have a problem taking your kid out?

Looks like a great day by the way!!
