Grandson was chasing Bull Trout last Sunday
 
My 9 year old grandson asked for a spey rod last Christmas, so I bought him a 7 weight, Redington Dually. He has spent a lot of time on the Vedder practising. Yesterday he went chasing Bulls. Remember...this kid is only 9 and casting a spey!!

Congrats to the young fisherman. Great start to a lifetime of fishing. Nice to see that grandpa bought him the rod too.

No kidding. I'm just about to order my first spey line. Bought the rod last year. Now I have to learn. That nine year old is already kicking my arse :)

Nice post and pic. Huge bull!

That’s the Upper Pitt River. He honed his casting skills on the Vedder for winter steelhead. Here’s a smaller Pitt bull. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b9ce9f53c1.jpg

This young lad is gifted with a good Grand Pa to. No amount of money could buy that.
