Recently I took my oldest son fishing on one of my favorite streams. It has taken me this long to take him, an accomplished angler for a pre-teen, because it is an incredibly small creek with remarkably spooky fish.

But those fish happen to be native brook trout.

I warned him of the challenges while singing the praises of what was in store.

After a rough hour of fly fishing, we sat and talked. I shared four pieces of advice that were encouraging for him. In hindsight, they  would be encouraging to anyone who is taking on the challenge of fishing a small creek with spooky fish. Check out what I had to say in this week’s podcast.
