Great place to fish and very fortunate to have three generations out there! Thanks for sharing.

Just great, thank you. Each year we go to the TX gulf coast for a week and I get to fish with my son, my brother, and my youngest (17 this year) grandson. It is a wonderful feeling.

We did not catch any fish, we are no threat to the salmon :lol:
I think next year when my son is 11 years old, it is time to fish a Bogdan :wink: , but I have to show him how to fish the double handed flyrod first.

It is a very nice time we have together and I look foreward to the next 3 generation trip :jump:

It is indeed a wonderful feeling.

Beautiful scenery, nice family and my usual kind of fishing. (No fish) Catching is a bonus, just going and being in the outdoors is the best. Sure is pretty country over there.

Yes the fish is the bonus - but I soon need to get the bonus :wink:

I'm travelling to Norway in 3 weeks again, so hopefully I can show a picture with a salmon.
