If you spent time fishing with grandpa as a youngster, I'm sure you will always remember the proud smile that spread across his face when you caught your first bluegill. You were on top of the world that day, and it was grandpa that helped you get there. While your circle of fishing companions has undoubtedly expanded as the years have passed, those days spent fishing with grandpa will always be among your favorites.
Perhaps you have kids of your own now, so of course you want your kids to have the opportunity to make the same kind of special fishing memories with grandpa that you did. Which is why it's the perfect time to consider all of the reasons why a day spent fishing with grandpa is the coolest.
Now that you have been reminded of all of the reasons why fishing with grandpa is the coolest, just check your state fishing regulations, and buy a fishing license online. Then, give grandpa a call. I bet he'd be thrilled to go fishing.
