I had planned on bailing out super early this morning to go fish but woke up at 7 after only 3hrs of sleep with a damn sore throat and low grade fever. So I whimped out and stay home.  I did get to tie a few flies during my girls nap.  When she woke she found the box opened and brought it to me. When I took it she wigged out yelling fry fry. So I took a straw and threw on some feathers.  She has not put it down yet.  She told mama. "fry eat ish". That is code for fish eat flies. She turns 2 in April and is going to be crazy in the creek this yr

This creek was so big that a high hole was virtually impossible.

Nice man.  'c;
My daughter is really into all my fly tying materials and always wants me to tell her what each of them are when I'm tying. She just turned six and helps me tie my thread nymphs and zebra midges.

nice little story robs_seven.  I enjoyed that.
Sometimes my 1 y.o. boy wants to sit on my lap while I am tying.
It usually doesn't work out too well since he immediately grabs for the sharpest thing on the desk.

yea, one day they are sitting on you lap learning to tie, and the next they are raiding your saddle hackles for hair extensions!

Woolly, Dont say those things, we have tried to completely steer her from girly crap and its in her blood.  We have never endorsed any thing girly, and sure as shit she loves Barbies, dresses, and pink.  b';  Its in her freaking blood, the only thing that levels the playing field is she loves the out doors, animals, and tractors.   

Im holding out hope that the feathers will only be used for TYING

Girls are neat until they turn 13.  From 13 until 17 they turn into monsters.  After 18 they turn into humans again.  I have 3---22 year old twins and a 24 year old.  Interesting enough they all have fished with me off and on through the years.  Now they are bored with fishing, but will hunt with me in a skinny minute.  For most of my life I fished when I couldn't hunt.  For the last 12 years or so  I have hunted when I can't fish.  My daughters are just like I was at that age.  One of my twins is deadly serious with a rifle in her hands.  Back in December we were hunting with a cousin near Yemasee in the Walterboro area of S.C.  My bloodthirsty one was in a ground blind with her boyfriend of 3 years overlooking a pretty heavy hog trail.  She texted her twin and informed her she was never hunting with her boyfriend again because he was wiggling and whispering.  We were placing bets on whether she would unload him or not.  They are still dating though.  Just remember what I said about the 13 to 18 ages.  You will go nuts.

Thanks for the encouragement. But all ready nuts

Man you guys really give me hope on this female thing.  In about 14hrs from now I will know if there is another one on the way.  From what Im reading here I got my fingers crossed for nuts.
