Nolan's first fish on the Centerpin! (PB Rainbow Trout!)

I took Nolan fishing the day after Thanksgiving. We fished all around the county for walleye and pike but were unsuccessful. At the end of the day we went back to the spot where I had been nailing the rainbow trout one day earlier (on Thanksgiving) in order to avoid the sunk. After catching my first fish to avoid the skunk, I gave Nolan a quick lesson on how to use the centerpin. Although he missed the first trout that bit in the middle of our lesson, he quickly hooked another fish which he landed. It was a 20" rainbow trout which was his personal best for that species at the time.
