My 12 year old granddaughter is visiting for a week. This was her arts and crafts project for the past two days. She made some flies using poppa's neck hackle and Krystal flash on a hook and some spiders using Snake River's Jilly Jelly bugs and some rubber skirt material. I will take her out fishing on Monday and she can use what she made up.

Your granddaughter has tied some fine looking flies to fish with Thumbs Up. Nice work young lady! Good luck with the fishing.
Looking at those you'd never know a 12 y.o. tied 'em. Congrats on some nice looking flies.Thumbs Up
She said "Thank you. I was watching Poppa"Quote:

Yeah. I have 5 of them to spoil. LOL.
Nice job by her and you. Maybe you can get here to keep you in jigs and flies for fishing?
Congrats,

She lives in Ohio. I bought her a vice and some basic stuff. She is going back and make some to sell to her teachers and friends.Quote:

Amen. You have got to give them constructive things to do as well as spend quality time with them. I am very proud of my granddaughter.Quote:
