Somebody help me out here.

I would love to take my kids fishing, especially my son (probably more like drowning worms). I used to go with my family all the time when I was younger and loved it.

Problem - I've never had to bait my own hook or take a fish off the hook. I'm clueless.

Know nothing about fishing. The closest I ever got was my dad took me to the park where there's a man made pond. He didn't like the wilderness! The water was so nasty we had to throw back any fish we caught anyway. Good luck in your quest for knowledge!

When my girlfriend and I went fishing in her pond we used bread and a rag, wrapped around the fish when we removed the hook. Your son might also be helpful. Some boys don't care. Hey...even your daughter could help.

My cousin's wife is a total tomboy and does all that stuff. Not me. Yuck.

Good luck!
