Sweet! If I may ask, how old were the boys when they learned to fly fish?

That lake is closer to Chilcoot than Portola.

They started flycasting over a year ago with bobbers but for long casts like Almanor we'd cast for them and they would retrieve. You should see them cast a spinning rod, wow. They cast a better loop than most guys I see on the stream. They are really lucky kids because their dad takes them fishing a lot and they really like it. I guess they were a late 7 early 8 when they started flycasting.

Nice Pic.

Actually, the "dad" is lucky (er) that the boys like to go fishing (what kid wouldn't if they get expertly guided on each and every trip) since we all know that as soon as we become parents are own interests take a big back seat to our kid's interests..... Most often, they are not one in the same... It's all good tho.
