Default Summer Browns with pics

Final trip of the year for me as I'm moving to Onteribble in a few days. I hit up an old favorite of mine for an afternoon and evening of punishment. Spruce trees and heavy underwater timber ate some flies. Fortunately the browns ate some too. Final fish is a healthy 21 inch male. Cutts are fun but there's nothing better than stalking a large brown rising in the summer twilight.

Great looking stream, looks like a winner. Love to fish that one with a Bamboo rod.
