(CBS)  Fishermen are famous for telling tales about the big one that got away.

So you can bet reality TV star "Boston Rob" Mariano jumped on board hook, line and sinker when he got a request to help a couple of very frustrated youngsters reel in their first fish.

Erica Diaz of Boca Raton, Fla. asked Rob to step in where her husband had fallen a bit short, in teaching their kids to fish.

Rob enlisted the aid of pro fisherman and TV show host Scott Maritn and headed with the Diaz family for Florida's Lake Okeechobee.
