I do believe that it was initially your suggestion
Wanna join us?

Who knows where I will take them after this first trip ? - at least one a
year for as long as they want to go w grampa

Floating the Middle Fork is on my Bucket list, Fred, but I can not do
it this year. A friend and his brother have mentioned doing it next
year. Might take my 21 yo grand daughter.

Enjoy your grand children, Fred. They are surely a blessing. Take
them on as many fishing trips that you can afford. The lasting
memories, pictures, and videos will be worth it.

Iit will be an easy first trip.

She is a sweet, smart and loveable kid.

Now to start looking for a "boat fiddle" - a cheap one that I can take
fishing or use as an oar -

Hi Fred,
I'm getting excited for you and your grand daughter as I'm reading your
post.
For what it is worth; we make a point of stopping at a shop with my kids (8
&10) to buy the "prize" for the first fish... a Mars Bar.

The rules.
1. Can't eat it before the end of the day!
2. The one who catches the first fish gets the Mars Bar... but you have to
share it with everyone present.
3. Don't forget to buy the Mars Bar before you get to the river.
4. Not allowed to catch a fish before dad... (this one is still up for
discussion; but it sure puts a glint in their eyes!)

This works well for us.

Have a great time mate.

Rob.
