I have been working way to much lately. I finally had a day to spend with my boy Jacob. We launched at South lido park around 9 Am in search of some fish. After paddling about fifty yards I started casting the mirrOdine into a large pothole. In that pothole seemed to be and endless Trout bite which was perfect to keep Jacob's interest for about 30 min.. At 3 yrs old he gets bored very quickly. After a few pics Jabob was over the fishing part of our trip so we headed back to the launch to load the rods back in the truck.

Now we were ready to hit the mangrove tunnels. We spent the next couple of hours exploring the tunnels . We found a few new tunnels we had never found before.

We encountered many different types of birds today.I think they were enjoying the shade of the mangroves as much as we were.

Today was a great day spent with my boy. If anyone has kids and would like to introdce them to kayaking & fishing ,the trails at South Lido Park would be a great place to start.

Not many youngins get to experience that sort of thing. I'm actually in the market for a native or comparable kayak/canoe for my 3 year old. He can already cast the Spider Man/Zebco like a champ! :thumbright:

Nice Job and Great PICS!! :cool:

Yeah, they are abit tricky to get use to, but one you get the hang of them, they are a bonzer setup :!: have been thinking of making it a permanent piece of my tackle :roll:
