Re: where did you start fly fishing?
Mid 50's. My dad and some buddys of his took a week trip with pack horses and mules out of Camp Nelson (Qauken Aspens), out of Porterville up into the Sierras, upper Kern River with native Goldens, this was before there were backpackers , we were all by ourselves for a week. I was 16-17 at the time and got to tag along on a guy's annual trip. Them guy's drank all nite and fished all day.

Had the time of my life.

Re: where did you start fly fishing?
First time was in a small lake on a gold course behind my sister in laws house...caught a nice bass one day and a crappie the next. since then have been fishing (or trying to) on a few local lakes (Dixon and Wohlford)... caught about 20 or so small bulegills one time.. since then I have been skunked..

I would have to agree. That place is awesome! I had the luxury to learn on some of the best trophy waters in New Mexico. Great fun. Now It's all about the coffee grinders for me on the big blue. I love hitting up the river trips though.
