Henry and I went to the "country" this weekend with his new fly rod. We started at the park on Saturday morning and then went to Carol's pond after dinner. He managed to hook and fight a nice rainbow on a foam beetle. However after putting it on the reel he struggled with which direction to wind and did a long distance release. There was another guy there fishing a big sculpin pattern that we saw land at least three pigs including a big arse brown. So after dinner we went to the pond. We had done some scouting earlier and saw one of the big bass patrolling the shallows by the dock. We went back and he got into them right away, impressing grandpa with his casting skills. He ending up landing 5 sunfish. I got into one nice sunnie and one of the beasts made an appearance. We had a little discovery channel inches from shore. It was quite a show. No luck later with a big baitfish pattern but hope remains.
