    Default Priceless... :-)

    My son Josh caught his first ever Brookie up on Jeremys Run this weak, on a fly sent to me by our good friend Gringo, from the land down under.. The fly was sent to me about 6 1/2 years ago.. I havent heard anything or seen any post from him in a long time.. My son is a freshman in college, but the look on his face was like a ten year old.. I said LOL son that fly had to come from around the other side of the world for you to catch that Brookie.. he laughed and has the fly mounted on his fly hat to savor as a memory.. awesome moment ..
    "Because by the Grace of God I can, be on a beautiful mountain stream with a friend , have the water boil from a 12" Native Brookie taking a self tyed dry,and feel it on the end of my cane... It don't get no better than that..."

    Hey Grubb, always great moments fishing with your son no matter how old. Our pic from the VA festival is on my computer slideshow, reminds me of a good time there.
    Have a great day.

    Tim,
    That's fantastic..congrats to Josh! You are one proud Dad & a pretty darned good guide. After all, you also put me onto my 1st ever brookie in an SNP stream. As I recall, your big catch that day was grabbing ME after I took a dunking.
    Now go tie Josh some Klinkhamers & soft hackles so he can get more.

    Mike
    FAOL..All about caring, sharing, & good friends!!
