Colin,
You have a lucky brother!
That's anice little outfit.
I also love to flyfish. I was taught by my father when I was very young. Started on bluegill with a cheap bamboo rod, low end reel and store bought poppers.
I have continued this tradition by teaching both my daughters and my son flyfishing and tying.
Today we mainly pursue smallmouth bass and northern pike with large 8 weights in Iowa and the boundary waters of northern Minnesota. But it is fun to grab my little 4 wt and fish bluegills in the spring.
Thanks for letting us have a look.
