Headed down to introduce my grandson to trout, fairy wands and fly rods.

I was looking for some recent info but since nobody posts anything here I got nobody to blame but myself

All the times I've went down and not given a report...so shame on me.

Check back Monday for an in depth somewhat tantalizing review with a twist of lemon! (yea, you can tell I'm bored)

SO, Sunday turned out to be pretty good. With rain in the forecast and the crowd was not bad. Dropped my fly fishing buddies off at the

spring and headed back down to the bridge(first one) to get the grandsons going. Power egg was the bait a choice for a 5 and 9 year old and they started

catching right off the get go( didn't get on the water til 9am). After an hour or so of untangling lines and such decided to take a hike from the bridge down to

behind the lodge....back up to the bridge for lunch around 1pm...took the youngest over and caught a nice little 1lber on a crackleback with the 5wt and the fight was

on.....the trout won as he hand the rod back to me.......my other buddies showed up from walking down from the spring and caught plenty of fish on pheasant tail, cackleback and wooly buggers......fish were running a little smaller than the last time we were there but stil fun......oldest grandson now wants a fly rod.

Got our fishs cleaned and back on the road around 4pm.....beautiful day!!

After an hour or so of untangling lines

that is not good. Take them to a farm pond and let them catch perch. Maybe catch grasshoppers for bait, or dig worms.

Let me clarify the tangled lines....it was there own lines.....the 9 year old does pretty good but the 5 year old is one of those

" I know how grandpa" but really doesn't. Just gonna take some time on the water. They do good in the back yard, but too

excited when we get to the water.
