Merle Haggard sings to son, Ben, while Ben fishes in rare video

In this sentimental, acoustic video Merle Haggard, sings the classic “Take Him Fishing” by Harlan Howard. While he’s singing, Ben, his son, catches bass near Slimy Creek.

Ben Haggard is Merle’s youngest son and is now the lead guitarist in Merle’s band, The Strangers. Ben began playing with The Strangers at the age of 15 and continues to tour with the band at the current age of 21.

Merle Haggard called himself a walking miracle in an interview with CNN, and credits God for keeping him healthy. He is still going strong at 78-years old, and the word “legend” usually makes an appearance at some point when discussing his legacy. He was inducted in the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1994, and Ben is carrying on the family legacy with a budding music career of his own.
