If your set on taking him out there I would suggest having a back up plan for keeping him entertained. I take my 9 and 6 year old regularly and they enjoy having a portable dvd player or video game in the car so if they get cold or tired of fishing they have something else to do. My kids usually enjoy looking in the rocks for old hooks and bobbers more than they like to fish. I usually end up hooking the fish and let them fight them. Not sure how good of a fisherman your 9 year old is but I would suggest finding a place where he can fish with a bobber and jig. Lot less hang ups and more fishing time for you!
