A friend invited me to fish a quiet reach of his favorite water. We'd fished together on a few out of the way waters in New Zealand last December. It was a wonderful day, though I should have seized more of the opportunities to film the amazing sight fishing we had. While the clouds covered the sun we had chances to catch fish and hooked a few. As soon as the sun came out no fly or tippet could come within 15 feet of the trout - they spooked instantly. It was a great day to see the reach.
The next day Amelia & I headed out to a small spring creek we'd not been able to fish all season. We came across a few fish and enjoyed a great day together in the warm, fall sun.
Through both days I managed to video tape a few moments that reflect the feel of the season... in a short video I call "Fall Friends" - both the sight fished browns, the staging browns swimming together, and the people I was able to enjoy time on the water with.
You can see the video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9Ml8yNTNsM) or look at the video to the top right of this blog. Be sure to watch it in HD as there is some clear footage. :)
Cheers & happy autumn.
