You're probably wondering who this old fella is I have been taking photos of.



He's not my Dad, Grandfather or Uncle, I'm not related to him at all. His name is David and he's a customer who comes into work. He likes to have a chat and one day when I successfully identified the difference between a Salmon and a Trout it was all on.



For the last few months he has wanted to take me fishing, he's been fly fishing for over 60 years so he knows a thing or two about it and a couple of weeks ago we organised a day. So last Monday he came and picked me up at 3am, no that isn't a typo, 3am. And we drove out to a private lake that he fishes at near Kinglake. He fished and I wandered around and took photos and video, of him mostly.







Then we drove around a bit looking for rivers to fish in and we got to the Steavenson River and we walked up it for a kilometre or two.



It was a very long day but I had a lot of fun, I am pretty sure we both did, lots of laughs and I learned A LOT about fly fishing. Not bad for a 79 year old.
