P.S. A 5YO Boy & His River

On his Skookum Photography blog, Ralph Bartholdt writes: "What does a kid see when he sees a fish? He is five and enamored with trout. He follows me to the river talking the whole way. He will not stop talking. I am a good boy, he says, I am almost grown up." You can read the rest of Ralph's story ("Finn, the boy, his river") that goes with this photo here. Also, you still have until Friday to get to the Coeur d'Alene Library and see Ralph's photography exhibit of North Idaho "faces."

Question: How old were you the first time you fished?
