High water in early spring
             at the "five fish pool"

  This is the pool at the upstream end of our property, and it seems that we can always count on catching at least five fish out of it.  There is an undercut ledge and a complex series of rocks on the bottom providing cover for trout.

Hiding behind a rock at the downstream end of the property.

This is just above the confluence of our two streams and is the beginning of one of the most beautiful sections of mountain stream that I have ever seen .  We do spend a lot of time hiding behind rocks or kneeling in rocky riffles to hide from trout.

A morning in late May finds Ed patiently
presenting an Adam's Wulff to a wily wild
rainbow trout on the lower end of the creek.

The lush trees and shrubs reach out over the stream
creating a beautiful setting for fishing, but constantly
pose a threat to errant flies delivered with less than
competent precision.
