Mr Dave G that is awesome, Good to see the next generation learning the skills of fly fishing. I to have to use the old magnifier to see my dang line and the hook eye. Part of getting old I guess. More like a pain in the butt. Oh well Looking fwd to the pictures . Dave V

The easiest way to post a few photo's is to create an album for yourself then you can easily add them to a forum post or set a link to the album in the forum. Let me know if you have a problem.

P.S. Wonderful that you are able to get out with the kids, best time in life is father and the kids doing things together.
Guys,
)
Hope everyone has been doing well- got out with my 11 year old daughter this morning and fished the Mad River in Farmington (More of a stream actually) caught a small brookie and lost another one both on an attractor pattern. Small hatch going on but nothing seemed interested.
The 11 year old is becoming quite a good fisherman and I expect her skills to surpass Dad's very quickly.
I have noticed that I've gotten to the age that I ask her to tie on my flies for me (need to get some of those flip down magnifying glasses I guess
She took a lesson from Tom Jutras at Mountain Road and it really stuck with her this year, it's nice to see her laying out a nice little roll cast or hold a tight loop on a cast and just get excited over that.
Worked on teaching her mending of the line, good day on the water. I'll have to post some pics of her casting.
