A Kid in a Creek

Had a great time fishing with my 5 year old daughter Olivia in a valley creek this afternoon. These were her first fish on a fly. #10 bead head Crystal Bugger. The fish were very cooperative!

Olivia bent on a surging Hardhead:


A nice Green Sunnie:


That was super fun fishin'! Matt.

Those pictures are priceless, I love the first one. Awesome technique, you must have taught her that.

Matt,

Cherish these moments and reflect on them often. My little girl is twenty-eight now and I still see her like she was five turning over rocks in tide pools and playing with salamanders,,, gee, they grow up soo fast

The first picture is really good.... Eyes closed, facing backwards.... What other way would a youngster use

Thanks for sharing....

Thanks for the post appreciation everyone. I am real happy with the first photo of Olivia fighting the fish. She was yelling: "Daddy, HELP!!" the whole time. It was a crack up. Those Hardheads can be pretty hot. Matt.

What I like the most is that she is a wet wader, that is so cool that she is willing to stand in the water and catch fish.

Love the photos Matt. Can't think of a more enjoyable way to spend a hot summer day, good for you!

Adorable photos. If you closely at #1... the line is wrapped around the rod below the stripper guide... surely made for some extra bendo...
