Kaden Fishes The Big River

TIME: 6:00 AM TO 10:30 AM; 12:30 PM to 2:00 PM
WEATHER: PC, Low 70s to high 80s
WATER CONDITIONS: 0 units
LOCATIONS FISHED: 1st and 2nd Islands above Ackerman/Handicap Access
FLIES USED: #14 Gray Norfork River Scud
HATCHES: None
OTHER: Fished with Ron and Mellisa in the morning. We all did very well and caught lots of fish; Mellisa caught an 18-inch brown (guide estimate).

Fished with Kaden, our 12-year old grandson, in the afternoon; it was his first time on the “big” river, i.e. the Norfork River rather than Dry Run Creek. He caught and released 1 fish, hooked 6 others, and missed an additional 15 others; pretty good for his first time, and considering the water had been fished constantly for 2 days and all morning prior to our fishing. We tried to photograph his fish, but it got away. He cast and mended extremely well.
