January thinking about Summer

January 6, 2017/in Trout Fishing/by Jon Ray

I saw this post today on Instagram and had to share, of a massive brown trout eating a big foam fly.  Something about waking up to single digit temperatures, makes me thinking of dry fly fishing.  Maybe it’s when you can’t have something, you just want it more.  Summer can’t get here soon enough.

 

Over the next 2-3 months a lot of backcountry fish will be feeding heavily on terrestrial insects. Get in touch with @russ__anderson if you want to experience some of the best dry fly sight fishing around during this period #dryfly #sightfishing #take #recommended ?Russell Anderson
