Funny this should come up now. I just signed up my granddaughter, aged 9 1/2, for the begginers fly fishing class at my local Bass Pro. She has been spin fishing for a while and I thought this would be great for her to get it from a different perspective rather than just me. Should be interesting to say the least and who knows, you're never too old to learn. Might be a way for you to get him more interested in a great sport.
