Hey PT, It's Eric who has the boy, and yes, he needs to see that... that's amazing. Your son has some crazy talent!

I have a 2.5 year old little girl, so, it may be a bit tougher for me, but, I'll try anyway.

Nice photo essay PT. I wish I could have convinced my daughter to fly fish more growing up.

Hey Phil,

What REALLY got Ally going was a trip we made to the Stillwater in "98. We stayed at a great ranch that belonged to the Father of a good friend. He (the Father) had two grandsons who kept trying to one-up Ally when we went fishing. She kicked their butts
At that point, she knew how to read the water.

Proving that: " Kids may not listen to what you say, they will NEVER fail to watch what you do".

She did that to me too, about 2 weeks after I met all of you guys at Janet's place...

Thanks for sharing! The memories I have of fishing with my dad are very precious to me. I hope my dad and I can get out fly fishing together sometime, or just dunking bait together again. I was very lucky that my parents and grandparents all took me fishing at different times and supported my addiction.

Cool Dustin,

I will check it out. I've already got him thinking about one of my secret
lakes that holds big fish...I'm trying to "sell" him. He's 80% there and
almost ready to do the necessary 3 mile hike in.

Of course, I'll be carrying his float tube and mine...oh, and both pairs of
fins, waders etc etc And food, and rods/reels and........
