Went to Tibble Fork again this morning with my dad and brother. My brother wanted me to teach him how to fly fish even though I am still a rookie, so I thought it was going to be pretty difficult. Went to the same spot and there was a lot of rising fish just like before but I didn't have any small dries, only a #12 parachute adams. after throwing that at them for a good 45 minutes to an hour. I saw them look at it and then just not interested at all, so I decided to use a #20 WD-40 and try to put floatant on it to see if it would float. To be honest I couldn't really see it but I felt a fish on, so I found out that obviously the fly was sinking and the fish were eating them. After catching 3, I gave one to my brother to tie on and he also got a fish. It felt really cool watching him catch a fish when I taught him, even though I myself have a lot to learn. I ended up with 4 fish again, 3 lost again, and to be honest, couldn't tell if I missed any. I also got to use my new 2wt which was a blast! Had a great Easter morning on Tibble Fork!
