Here are a few photos from my first guided fly fishing lesson. why fly fishing? why not?! It does need a deal of patience and persistence. The rewards in the end always reminds you of the good fun activity you just had. In this outing, the five ladies fly fished in two ponds and a small lake. At "about the high noon, we decided to give the "smaller" pond a rest due to the fact that  we "put the fish under" and besides it was lunch time.  The laughter, chatter, comrade and friendly competition for beautiful trout was evident and extremely fun. The day was beautiful and the conditions just about perfect equaled a hoot and hollering time!
