Fishing while at the stream with the warm sun on your neck can't be beat.

I managed to fool this beauty with my version of a BWO dry fly. It smashed it and gave a fantastic fight with a few jumps and tailwalks. What great fun!

A quick picture and a gentle midstream release, with minimal skin to skin contact. Try to be gentle on the jaw!

Hand tied #16 BWO dry fly, debarbed and with clipped hackle so it sits right on the surface film.

Gently slipped back into the rocks near the shore.

Awesome Natural Brookie!

This gorgeous native southern Ontario brookie was caught on a dry fly at the head of small pool.

It had to come to hand as it was hooked deep. It's the only reason I posed it for a photograph. I try really hard to avoid skin contact with trout of all sizes. Hands and nets are dirty and can contaminate the slime. Best to leave them in the shallow water.

All Brookies SHOULD be immediately released, untouched wherever possible. These are still natural in our waters!. Please do all you can do to preserve the youngsters and the lunkers. Handle with care!

I use single barbless flies even when not required by law. The BIG Char need all the help we can give them. When I hook more than 1, I consider myself blessed! Still hoping for that 18"er, even though I've come close.  3 times now same fish, 0/3 but smiling!

A nice little brown caught on a dryfly!

I make these foam wing flies for two reasons. They float great in rough water and they are easy to see. The excitement of the dry fly can't be beat. What a great day. Any day on the river is a great day. Catching a a fine brown trout like this is a bonus!

This brown was gently released in the water, not netted and touched only a little bit. Try your best to release your fish in the best possible condition.  No gills, no dry hands, minimum skin to skin contact, barbless hooks avoid the net and keep them breathing in the water.

Sometimes they get the fly right down. This one had to be handled so I got a pic. to share. A nice little brookie, light colouration, caught on a dryfly in one of my favorite riffles.

Always best to release untouched whenever possible. Handle with care!

When the hatch is on the trout are willing to thrill, and they do. Any day on the river is a great day.

Catching a fish is a bonus, a few, better. Catching a hatch is the best!

Send me your pictures of your flies or fish caught on flies and I'll post them online here or in my galleries!
