A personal 2020 highlight

As miserable & stressful as this interminable year has been, finally - something I attempted worked exactly as planned, with a deeply satisfying outcome.....for both of us. I released  the fish unharmed after reviving it for a while.

Caught this 22" brown trout yesterday, with an 8' / 5 weight bamboo rod I built,  on a fly I tied ( an olive & black streamer ). Was so excited I forgot to include the rod in the picture as a size reference.

A big brown beauty, enhanced by your personal investment in the hand-made tools of the trade. Fine picture of a colourful Fall catch. That fat trout is about 8 times the size/weight of any brook trout I caught as a boy in backwoods Quebec, 60 years ago. Makes me smile 😀.
