Florida Bass Fishing - Dads and Sons Millennium Fishing Reports

FLORIDA BASS FISHING MILLENNIUM
2000
DAD'S AND SON'S FLORIDA BASS FISHING TRIPS

There is no finer thrill to experience then the expression on a youngster's face when they hook and land a Florida bass. These kids have a way of going over all of the details of how they caught that Florida bass that really makes it very exciting to listen to. They somehow always seem to make the bass a pound or more bigger each time they tell the story. In any event there is no other lasting memory a father and son could ever experience together that will always be talked about over the years during all the family holiday get togethers.

Take advantage of our Florida Bass Fishing Special listed below and take your son Florida bass fishing with us!

I can promise you he will be thrilled to see and brag about his picture that will be posted on our web page!

Florida Bass Fishing Dad's & Son's Report:

July 25 & 26, 2000

Florida bass fishing dad Ken McAlister and 15 year-old son Andrew (Andover, KS - e-mail: mcalisterkg@veracom.net) caught 34 Florida bass that included a 6 1/2 lb., 5 1/2 lb. and 5 1/4 lb. bass during 2 half days (Jul. 25 & 26, 2000) of wild shiner fishing with Captain Ron. Andews dad caught the 6 1/2 lb. bass during the same time Andrew was fighting the 5 1/2 lb'er. Andrew also caught the 5 1/4 lb. bass. We fished the Harney Pond Canal cuts of Lake Okeechobee. All bass were released.

This Cormorant which was hooked and released unharmed while it was diving and searching for a meal caught and ate one of our wild shiner baited lines. It put up a good fight and had us believing we had a trophy bass on the line until it surfaced!

All three of us are already talking about next year's fishing tournament. Shane can't wait to send all his friends the picture you are going to post on the Internet. We will always have wonderful memories from this trip.

Thanks again for the great time we all had!!

Both my 10 year old son John and I had a great time! The 13 hour road
trip from Ocean Springs, MS was definitely worth it! Our guide
made sure that it was a "memory maker" for both of us -
especially my son. My son pulled in 16 bass over the 2 days with the
biggest coming in at 6.5 pounds. I caught only 5 bass but was able to
videotape lots of smiles on my son's face!

I really appreciated the patience our guide displayed. He knew the
sole purpose of the trip was to introduce my son to bass fishing and he
"made it happen." Please pass on to him my gratitude for being a great
host.

Hopefully, it won't be too long until we can make a return trip!

Thanks again for a great time,

John and Howard Rush

Ron:

My son, Brandon, and I fished with your guide the beginning of the month and had a great a very memorable trip. I really appreciate the experience that he gave Brandon during our two half day outings. He hasn't stopped talking about it and takes great pride in the fact that he caught the biggest bass, which coincidentally is a bigger largemouth than his dad, uncle and grandfather have ever caught in their life.

Thanks to you and your guide for providing such a rewarding time. As we visit Florida again, you can be sure that we will be repeat clients.

Thanks again,

Steve Alford
