netboy Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 We had our daughter and granddaughter visiting for Spring break the last couple of days. This morning the water on the White was finally down to minimum flow so I took my daughter wade fishing at the Cotter access. I knew the water would come up about 9:00 so we had a short window to fish. She hasn't fly fished before but got the hang of it pretty quick She caught 4 or 5 and missed a bunch due to being a bit slow on the hook set. I hooked this nice brown and handed the rod off to her about halfway thru the fight. He made 5 jumps clearing the water and we had to chase him downstream about 50 yards.

netboy Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 Yes but that's money well spent. Nothing better than getting them involved in the great resource we have here. Johnsfolly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foghorn Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 You are correct sir! The Mrs. has a ton of stuff and uses it very well. Just can't get her to go as much when the temps are below 40 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
