This was one of those weekends I wish would never end! After a bunch of work yesterday, I hopped on my BMW K12LT and rode south to hunt some shrooms. Found 27 small ones and headed back toward Indy as I had promised my grandson we'd go fishing and I'd let them try the fly rod for the first time!  Seth was the 1st to land a gill and did surprisingly well with the 9' rod!  Not to be outdone, Zeke had his turn!  And after the filleting party and a ton of questions, the frying pan got busy!!! Man, that's gotta be some of the best eating!!!  |

I'm so glad to see that I'm not the only person who enjoys panfish on a fly rod. My scouts loved fishing for their food and I'd be the big old mean guy and usually out catch them between the 7' fly rod or the 16 ' cane pole.

Cotton, I know the feeling because my grandson spent the weekend with us, we scouted for turkey both mornings, he drove me all around in the UTV, we ran catfish buoys during the night and we fished for gills during the day. I also introduced him to shooting as we tried my new 22 semi auto handgun, he cut paper on every shot. We capped off the weekend with a fish fry along with some sweet corn and fried taters with store bought mushrooms, it's been to dry and to cool for morels. Being a grandpa is great isn't it!  |

You got that right! Even the simplest things like watching the boys play with the fish in the bucket...priceless memories to me! |
