Summer Browns
I recently received a photo from one of Jason’s friends, Kurt Lach. He went to school with Jason, raced bicycles with him, and eventually became a fly fishing addict. It’s a great photo of a lovely summer brown, taken from a small stream in western Wisconsin on 6X. Summer fish hold a special place in my heart. They have beaten the odds of the early season, and have become especially attuned to lower, clearer waters, tiny mayflies, feeding early and late, and the every presence of heron, mink, and other predators. They required well-honed angling skills, and a deep concentration of being the best Angler as Predator that one can be.
Kurt’s lovely summer brown in perfect condition.
