Daughter's First Fly

[Douger]

She's 12.  The other day she asks me "Daddy can I try tying flies?"  😳 Yep!!  My buddy graciously dropped his vice & supplies off on my doorstep and today she tied her first one.  Wooly bugger, and well done!  She wants to do more so I said I'd shop around for a vice etc.  So if anyone thought they'd get into fly tying, but now their stuff is collecting dust in the basement, please PM.  Adherence to social distancing/curbside pickup/e-transfer/etc.

I'm not personally a fly fisherman but to my eyes that is a beauty!  Now we need to see her first fish on it!

That turned out a lot better than if I ever tried to make one.

Good job.

Thanks guys yeah I thought she did well and it gives her something to do to help reduce the crazy amounts of screen time that have been the result of social distancing.
