He is 3 an every trip he gets alittle better but some days its still not enough room in the boat for both of us, but he is always ready to go fishin

Not using dynamite, but have had times when I've considered it! Sounds like Buckdroppings was on the quality fish. I just couldn't find them...tons of shorts. I hear ya about the kids....been taking my daughter fishing since she was born. Can get difficult at times (boredum, temper tantrems, tripping over each other in the boat, the little voice that says "are we going home yet", tangled lines, baiting hooks, etc). LOL! It really makes me appreciate my father and him taking me out when I was little....I can see where it would be so much easier to just go solo and focus on catchin fish. But, I wouldn't trade the time with my daughter on the lake for nothing. Once I get a keeper in the well, she is entertained. I've just been keying in on any structure near deeper water and that has been the ticket (some fish). I think with all the water being pulled the fish are holding tight to this structure in deeper water and avoiding the shallow waters. Haven't caughten any fish back in the shallows? Hopefully when the lake stabilizes the fish will get shallow and more aggressive, don't know. Take care.
