We've all done it. We've all gone out to the lake or the creek or the stream with Dad. But what does that really mean? How is your experience with Dad any different than any other fisherman? Easy – it just is.

Fishing is, and always has been, a family thing. Besides being a great way to bond with your Pops, fishing teaches so many lifelong lessons, especially when you're willing to open up your eyes and ears and pay attention.

First and foremost, fishing teaches you discipline and skill. Trust us, it may seem easy to do, but there's so much more to fishing than meets the eye. It's a calculated science and one that many Dads try to master so that they can show their kids how it's done. Remember when your Dad told you his secrets to making a great catch?

Fishing also has a great sense of adventure. When you're young, you look at a fishing trip as a chance to get out and explore. As you put on your overalls, rubber boots, and floppy hat, you're not just getting ready. You're dressing for the challenge and the journey. You'll wade through muck and search for underwater worlds. You may even have your first run-in with some live bait. No matter what adventure, just know that fishing is full of chances for one.

Finally, fishing with Dad teaches you responsibility. It wasn't just something to do. It was an honor to get to come along. You had to listen. You had to behave. As a result, you learned how valuable it is to just do what you're told. It'll catch you a fish – and leave you with memories to last a lifetime.
