anyone know a good regular hook a duck water where i can take my youngest

want him to be able to pull 10/15 lbs fish out all day to get him interested
and maybe a taste for it?

How old is (s)he? If under 15 then (s)he probably won't be strong enough to
deal with them properly and won't enjoy it.

MUCH better to go to a small river where the current will take care of any
poor casts and a steady supply of small roach/dace will be well within
capabilities. Later a small rudd-infested stillwater would be worth a visit.
The young are far more interested in numbers than size.

If 8 or younger then aim for a two hour session.

8-10 three hours.

11-13 no more than five hours.

Once the child has a taste for it you can go for longer sessions or for two
sessions in a day with a non fishing break (away from the water) in between.

It's probably a mistake to make it too easy, let the first pounder be a
-big- -special- fish. Later the two pounder becomes the major prize. A
series of steadily increasing personal bests gives a much greater sense of
achievement.

Cheerio,
