Synopsis
It’s the first summer after Austin’s grandfather has died and he’s not sure how much he’ll enjoy his visit to the farm with just his grandmother for company, especially since this was the summer his grandfather was going to teach him to fly-fish. Everything feels different, and without Grandpa, it seems as though traditions are lost. But with a string of beads and a spur-of-the-moment fishing trip, Austin and his grandmother learn how to keep memories of Grandpa alive–and begin some new traditions of their own.
