As the boy grows, so do the fish

Tanner caught his first fish when he was eight years old and that began his love for the sport. He is 15 now and spends most of his free time in grandpa's canoe on the lake. In the winter he's at the same lake boring holes in the ice to do some ice fishing.


This is the walleye pike he caught last Thursday in the lake. It was 27" long and weighed almost 7 1/2 pounds. He's pretty proud of this catch, just like he was of the one 7 years ago.

Wow that is a nice fish. Lance still talks about coming up there to fish sometime. Tanner was such a cute little boy and is such a good looking big boy!

Tanner looks so much like his dad with a little Acton thrown in. I think his dad liked to fish, too.

Tanner has always been such a cute kid. I love the picture of him with the little fish. Our grandkids are getting big too fast.

I am trying to remember which parents are his. Is he your son's son? Handsome little bugger isn't he.
