More: Sid has been with me since he was 6 weeks old. We’ve been backpacking, mountain running and trout fishing ever since he was 6 months old. I’m not sure who enjoys our time in the woods and on the water more. This year we have spent more time fly fishing for wild brook trout in Virginia and West Virginia, mostly in Wilderness Areas in George Washington National Forest and Monongahela National Forest. This photo was taken on a local wild brook trout stream.
