Introducing Kids to the World of Fly Fishing
As a guide, one question I often encounter is, “How old do my kids need to be to go on a fly fishing trip?” It’s a query that doesn’t have a one-size-fits-all answer. The truth is, it depends on the child.
I’ve had the pleasure of guiding kids as young as 6 who have taken to fly fishing like naturals, staying focused and engaged for hours on end. Conversely, I’ve guided adults with little patience, finding themselves bored after just 30-45 minutes. So, more often than not, it’s not about age but about patience.
The bottom line? If you think your child can enjoy the outdoors and fishing in Myrtle Beach simultaneously, then there’s no time like the present!
