Oh My God! I'm laughing that evil villain type laugh. I KNOW EXACTLY what you are facing. How old is he, and is that as old as he is going to be?
I can really help here... It's going to be a tough 20 hour trip to Carrabelle but I know of the BEST Bull Shark fishing grounds perhaps in the entire country. I regularly pull ten footers out, and have seen several 14 footers caught.
Nothing brings a family together better than a Florida Gulf fishing trip. The night trips are even better. I'll teach the boy how to hand rub all the chum, and lend him my lucky deck shoes. They seem heavy, and tight fitting but they really keep you where you are supposed to be. You know what? I'll even tell him exactly where the underwater cave is where we all dive for these cool ass gold coins. There are hundreds of them, and old Pirate guns, Cool stuff.
ONLY if he gets all the chum rubbed first tho. Gotta learn him some responsibility. Then we can all go to the shark spot.
Oh Blue... Please say yes!
