Bruce Tilbrook has taken the time to teach his grandkids the joy of both fly fishing and now tying their own flies. As you can see, the kids are having a great time. I love the concentration on their faces. Both kids are quite into tying some flies for this years fly fishing adventures with both Dad and Grandpa Bruce!
Makynna, Bruce's granddaughter, decided to teach her Dad how to tie a fly. Her coaching included lots of wisdom that was passed on by grandpa. I can just picture Makynna reminding her dad to replace the lid on the head cement after using it. "No Dad, not too much! Just a little bit of cement after each step!" were some of the suggestions Makynna gave her Dad! ....and finally, "Now just clip the extra parts that don't look right!" ...great coaching Makynna!
Passing on our passion for a sport to the younger generation keeps our sport alive to be enjoyed by many others over the years.
Well done Bruce.
I wonder how Dad's fly looked?
Noah is quite proud of his flies! They look like fish catchers too!
