Youth Nationals Rhodes

[smallstreams.co.za]

There are 2 youngsters of that age that are serious prospects for the future. Super young boys. Keen as mustard.
With a burning desire to learn more and just want to fish the whole day.

Weet jy dalk hoe oud is die outjies? Ek gaan gou op FB kyk vir 'n foto - sal help dat iemand weet van wie ek praat

The kid I'm referring to is Stefan.

The rest of your post was a "different tangent" as you said. That's why I didn't quote it. Apparently one of the nicest incident free youth Nations to date.

Quote the rest of that post for a glass that is BOTH half full AND half empty. Iow, what it really is. It cannot be either, it can only be both.

Yes, super kid.
Stefan and Murray are the 2 "small" ones in the WP A team.
both super talented, Ties disgustingly beautiful flies.
Just can't get enough fishing done in one day, never stops thinking and talking fishing after the sun has set.
I have spent a lot of time with both of the young boys.
I wish I had the "mentors and exposure" the kids of today have.
if you think that these kids have done the Pascal's course, have all the knowledge of Jiri Klima, Edoardo Ferrero, Pier Luigi Cogichto etc that was passed to fellow fly fishers passed onto them.
Plus a good number of senior fly fishers' world championships passed along as well, they are are so far ahead to compared most of us seniors where we where late in our "fishing careers"

In total agreement. Fred made the same comment.
