Popular Post monger Posted August 12, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2017 Well my son finally asked to learn how to fly fish ....I thought maybe he missed the gene or something. We packed up the dry flies and headed for the mountains to learn how to cast. After a 20 minute lesson we were on the hunt for the perfect dry fly fish. The fish were eating tiny emergers so we had to scale down the usual Cutty fly to a little BWO. And then it happened. Ryan is on the team as a 17 year old! Then he continued for the next two days fooling lots of these pretty surface eaters 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeL Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 That's awesome. My 17 year old son has absolutely zero interest in fishing. I hope this changes as he gets older. I took my 13 year nephew fly fishing for the first time last weekend and he got his first fish on a dry fly. He seemed to really enjoy it and took home an old rod and reel to practice casting in the school field near his house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monger Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 So fun to watch people get excited. Ryan said "Now I see why you like this so much". "So cool to watch them come up and eat". That's my boy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
