Some of my fondest memories as a kid was going to fish northerns with my Dad at the old spots he used to fish as a kid around Attica where he grew up.
My Dad is 86 now and still regularly fly-fishes - walks his creeks around WNY. He looooves WNY and the fishing. When we visit my son and I go out with him, then come back home and there's no fishing like that around here.
