    Good tournament for a father and teenage son?

    My son is 15 and really getting into bass fishing. He’s on his high school team this year and getting better. Him and his partner qualified for the state championship this year. Does anyone have any suggestions for a fun tournament we could fish together in Louisiana or close by? I would really like to fish one with him.

    If he’s thinking about fishing professionally one day I’d start taking him to fish the regional Media Bass team events. It brings together most of the best fisherman in the area. As he gets better he can start fishing the Media single events or College events followed hopefully by progression to the BASS Opens or BFL’s.

    Not sure when the Thursday night dog fights start in Henderson but that may work.

    This is one of the 1st tournaments I fished with my son when he was 15....We had a positive experience ..He ended catching our biggest fish that day and received a plaque ...I was a proud Dad...Fish as much as can with'em because they don't stay young long...
