If you do, why not get them into the Kid's Only Swap listed on the Swap Board? A great opportunity to learn a little focus, responsibility, express their creativity and to meet new friends...not to mention a little quality time with the supervising parent. Come on folks, let's make this one a roaring success. http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/biggrin.gif
I do , but he's 37 , I guess thats to old . I Wish my grandson would tear himself away from His X-Box long enough to tie , but the electronics age is upon us . Except for the box I don't think he slows down long enough to tie even his shoes which he doesn't , gotta look Kewl you know .
Hey LF,
I'm starting a fly tying and fly fishing club with my grade seven and eight students in the new year...after they have learned a few of the skills, maybe we could get involved in such a fly swap.
Cheers to a great idea!
HI EVERYBODY,i'm FisherKid93 me and my dad(kahuna) started the kids only fly swap.
i would love to have kids to be in the swap all of the information is on the bulletin board.
My two boys, (6 & 10) are just starting to learn the tying end of fly fishing. My wife
as well !!! Nice for it to become a family affair !!!!! Someone will still know how to tie my patterns right when I'm long gone & a fly fishing with St. Peter !!!
Nice to hear the kids get involved on this board as well !!!!
I love this idea! My son is only 2 so he might be a little young, but he already loves to "help" daddy at the vise. Maybe next year he can start on his own *G* I hope you get a nice turnout on this swap, it is a great idea
