Danherst Pond Garfield NJ
 
hit the local pond today knowing they were stocking it.....got there at 8am thinking the place be packed.....not.....talked to a guy said the stocking truck wont get here til after 1030.......by 11 still no truck and 1 small bass to show.

Truck shows up at about 1130.......fun watching the people run to where they dumped the fish in....they dump a few net fulls in across from me....and people rushed to where i was fishing.....was like ok fine......made a move 20 feet to the right.

Than.....got one, next cast got another, third cast number 3.....people across the lake what you using....worms. nothing for about 15 minutes

A guy shows up with his little 3 year old god son......this is priceless

the next 3 cast I make i hook up.....each time giving my rod to this little boy...watching him land all 3 fish...the smile on his face I will never forget

Would love to hear the stories he told his Mom and Dad when he got home!!

So to all you fishermen out there if there a little kid around.....do what I did and make his day......it did mine seeing that smile from ear to ear!!!!!

Funny the long lasting effect, he is gonna, eat, sleep, dream fish from now on for the rest of his life, spending thousands of dollars on fishing equiptment.

Got the kid hooked.........better than PS2 or drugs, glad you did what you did. GREAT REPORT.

Yeah, andy, they won't get a PS2, but they'll get an xbox, laptop, iphone, and anything else they can to look at fishing videos, and fishing games... etc. hahahah
