5.0 out of 5 stars Guess Who's Going Fishing ...., July 18, 2011
This review is from: Rapala Original Floating Lures Fire Tiger (FT) Size 3 (Misc.)
... in a few weeks? In Vermont, of all places, and with my 20-year-old son who has just discovered nostalgia! We haven't fished together for at least six years. I almost garage-saled all my tackle, since to my mind fishing is intrinsically and exclusively a multi-generational pleasure.

Every lifelong fisherman has a superstitious reverence for certain tackle, especially for certain lures, a preference probably inherited from his own father and piously handed on to his son. My lure-love is Rapala. I have a couple dozen Rapala lures, floaters and sinkers, various shapes and sizes, some that I've never caught a fish on, some in fact that I've never put in the water. They're beautifully crafted, fun to look at, so I confess that "pride of ownership" is involved. I imagine that I've caught more in-the-slot pike and pan-sized trout on less orgulous lures, but several of the photo-worthy big fish of my career -- the biggest lake trout ever caught in Leigh Lake at Grand Tetons, for one -- have bitten on one of my Rapalas.

Can you imagine how thrilled I am that my son wants to go fishing? And to bring his Australian girlfriend, too?
