    Default Teaching the youngsters


    Had a great opportunity today at a local outdoor store to let some youth try their hand at tying. During their spring fishing sale 4 of us held a little jig/fly tying demo. Quite a few kids came through and I had the privilege of 5 of them getting on my vise and trying it out. Loved their excitement when they were done and they were admiring their handiwork

    You're a good man. It takes patience to do something like that. I sure enough have enough stuff to do a few classes on my own without buying any supplies.

    Always a good thing passing on hands on info to the young ones, future generation of fisher people. Good on ya for it. Thank you. Always love to hear things like this. Gives the youngsters things to do and keeps them off the streets and out of trouble for sure.

    That's good stuff! I wish there were more places around here as I would love to help some young guys out with tying.
