To the editor:

A big thank you to Trout Unlimited, Bainbridge Island Fly Fishers and Far Bank Enterprises for helping make our Labor Day youth fly fishing demo a tremendous success! This family event would not have been possible without their generous support in helping us get more kids outdoors and fishing.

All in all, we got 36 kids ages 3 to 15 casting at Battle Point Pond, tying flies and catching fish. While weed fish, stick fish and tree fish were abundant, we did see some brown trout and small mouth bass successfully caught!
