Stone Mountain NC Trout Fishing
We took my daughter Emma (3 years old) up to Stone Mountain State Park in NW North Carolina last week for her second trout fishing trip ever. Stone Mountain has many miles of trout fishing opportunities (including Delayed Harvest and Wild waters), it's family friendly, and it's easily reached. I wasn't sure what to expect, but Emma did great trout fishing for a while by the main stream by the road, having a picnic, and then hiking about 1 to 1-1/2 miles up Big Sandy Creek, seeing Middle Falls, and then hiking back. Though we didn't catch any trout, we saw a few, had a strike, and most importantly, had a great time and continued working Emma toward becoming a trout fisher. For ideas on fishing with children (some of these techniques are demonstrated in the video below), see our class on Fishing With Kids. See the video below for a recap of the day trout fishing at Stone Mountain State Park with Emma.

Great Vest
I loved the pictures of your daughter and I think that the vest is absolutely darling. I laughed when she took out her sippy cup and took a "pull" on it.
