Yes, good to hear the boy's ok. Something similar happened out of the
GG a couple weeks ago. Here's an edited fishing report.

Here is a story we'd like to share about 6 year old Hunter
"Stitch" Jury as posted on our forums by member "BLAIR". Here
is an edited version of their adventure fishing at Dux for salmon....

Their day started off great as they got an early start. They launched
at 5.45 and were in line for Bait at 6am. They got to the golden gate
and BLAIRS buddys' 6 year old son took a spill, cracking his head
open.

Needing stitches, they turned the boat around and had the boat back on
the trailer by 8am and were at the hospital at 8:30am. After waiting
and receiving 5 stitches they were done at 10:30am at the hospital.

The funny part is that "Stitch" tells the doctor halfway through
the stitching process that he would appreciate her hurrying up, as he
needed to get back out to go fishing!!! He needed his 1st salmon and a
few stitches weren't going to stop him!!

The doctor cleared the idea with father Jeff Jury after she picked her
jaws off the floor and stopped laughing. Blair had no choice but to
take the boy out and that they did.

The weekend prior "Stitch" had lost a BIG salmon on the downrigger
cable and was seeking his redemption so back out they went.

Back fishing around noon ten minutes into the fishing, the 1st rod goes
off! "Stitch" takes helm of the rod and reel and lands his 1st
keeper salmon!

Congrats Hunter on a job well done. Your family and friends should be
proud. You're off to a great start at being a True Fisherman!
