yeah, I'm 15 and i am a Rieter local and i usually don't see many people my age or younger, i do know one person that is my age but he doesn't go out much. I get usually get look at as just some kid and it's rediculous, and when i am usually out there i don't take crap from many people when they can be total river dorks... but it's nice to see that there are teenagers out there that do fish
