Small stream with the boy - tkidder - 07-15-2011

After work this morning, me and my 7 year old son got to get out to a small stream. We caught 31 and he didn't want to quit after 3 hours![shocked]

Caught a couple that were bigger than I expected and he begged to take home for dinner, but I made him put them back[sly].

Great day on the water with a great fishin buddy. Most fish were caught on a prince nymph that I fished under a caddis 'indicator'.

Brings back the memories, for that is exactly how I got my start in the early 60's with my Grandfather... he is probably hooked for life.

Oh yeah he did!! He hooked about 5-6 and landed 3, he had trouble keeping them on because of line control issues. I let him pull in several others after I got them on the reel (although it was hard not to accidentally land them[:p]) He asked today when we were going to go again!!

Great report. Brings back memories of the first time my son went fly fishing 8 years ago on a stream about that size in Idaho. I'll probable take him back there next month. I imagine you'll be taking him back there several times in the future.

Good times. My boy is just now starting to show some real interest. If you don't mind, where were you fishing. If you would rather, send me a PM. My boy would love it. Thanks.

My daughter is the same way. 8 years old and keeps asking when I am going to take her out fishing again. Great job![cool]
