This would be the first time for me to fly fish. I got the hang of it enought to get a grandslam which consisted of a Rainbow,Brook,Brown and Cutthroat all caught in the same day. I was the 12th person to get it this year in over 27,000 hours of fishing on the ranch.

Congrats on the slam. I see you finally received the top fisherman award from Daves Colorado trip. Glad they were able to track you down. Well done, now when are we gonna hit the guad?

Very cool, Robert.
A quick flyfishing lesson and your catching a slam.
Are you throwing the baitcasters away now. :lol:

I'm not throwing anything away. It just means that I will be building myself a fly rod soon. :D
