Keeton’s First Time Fishing! Bass and Bluegill on Kentucky Lake

My son, Keeton, has been asking to go fishing for a while now and he finally got his chance! We hit Kentucky Lake in search of bluegill and shellcrackers and had a great time. Hopefully we’ll be able to get back out and do more fishing soon!

I grew up fishing in the pond in my backyard but I’ve never been a very successful lake fisherman. Kentucky Lake is a beautiful place with great fishing so even if you’re not a proficient fish catcher it’s still a great time.

I don’t get to do as much fishing as I would like.  We stay very busy around the farm and I have a bad habit of putting off recreation time, especially if I have to pack up and go somewhere to play.  Now that my kids are getting a little older it’s easier to bring them places and we’re adventuring a little further out than we have before. My wife, Megan, and I want our kids to grow up spending time enjoying all of God’s Creation, and we think it’s important to do that in more places than just our farm.

All in all I caught one small bluegill and our friend Jay caught a few bass. While we didn’t bring home the catch we hoped for it was a great day on the water with my son.  He’s excited to get back out there and so am I.  Thanks for watching this video – I hope to bring you more like it in the future, and sooner rather than later!
