You have contributed to his truancy.Somebody should call the cops.... I have no doubt he would learn more out there, from you, than he would learn in school....

Excellent!! Ain't nothin wrong with fishing instead of school once in awhile (Sunday school in Ruarks case ). Coincidentally I told my son that between him and I next Tuesday he was staying home for a "home school" day at the range to ring out his new Mod 7. He starts hunters ed in 2 weeks and is pretty excited.

We probably should have capped the day with a range session in the back yard, but he wanted to pull the kayaks out of the basement and give them a wipe-down to ensure they're GTG. Maiden spring voyage after baseball tomorrow. Damn life do suck George

Did he catch anything? Sadly, no (and neither did the old man). We tried a couple other spots on a different river and got skunked. I didn't feel too bad as a couple older gents suffered the same, tragic, end. Funny, none of us were complaining...... George

I have no doubt he would learn more out there, from you, than he would learn in school.... "What do you have this afternoon for classes?" "Music....why?" "I have our rods/tackle boxes in the back of the truck, you still want to go back?" "We need lunch, isn't there a gas station by the river?" I figure he learned geography, math (2 hotdogs for $2.00 is a better deal than $1.29 each), and insect ID. Screw music....

....when Dad is responsible for returing boy to school after an early appointment! Looks like a stream that would be full of brookies? An afternoon fishing once in a while is better education than a liberal teacher trying to brainwash the kids. Time with Dad is priceless.

A bad day of fishing beats a good day at school.
