Took out Michael here last week. He told me he had only gone fly fishing a couple times, yet when we were on the water, he understood drifts, and advanced mending better then a lot of people I've seen who have fished for decades. He tied his own flies and had a decent grasp on what worked. I couldn't figure out how he had all these innate talents without ever really doing these activities for much time. His secret; he studied youtube vids of other people fly fishing and tying. Ahh, the modern era. Great job Michael. I'm happy to see young folks like you that are inquisitive and dedicated to the things they enjoy.

Good to see a youngster out there with that much talent. He's a boon to the future generation and besides that, he can catch fish. Bravo.
