    Default Nice Rainbow caught by my ten year old

    Here is a video of my oldest son bringing in a nice rainbow. This was on Dry Run Creek in Flippin Arkansas, after spending the morning at the sowbug roundup. This was on a 3 wt. rod I had built for him for this trip(5 wt tippet with a size 18 midge). Just be sure to ignore the part where some idiot says it is an 8lb fish(he sounds a lot like me), maybe not 8, but a prize catch for my oldest. Of my three sons, he was the least interested in fly-fishing. I had built each of them their own rod, and this got him excited about fishing. I worked with him for about 30 minutes on mending and line management, and Dry Run Creek is such an awesome place, he was catching fish in no time. He saw that every time he got his line mended properly, he had a chance to catch a fish, and all of a sudden, he had it figured out. All three boys caught a ton of fish, and had a lot of fun at the Sowbug Roundup, and on the water. The blank was a Bingham Enterprise rod, and it by far the best blank I have built on to date.
