UNDERSTANDING THE STILLWATER AND THE TROUT
In his 1978 book Fly Fishing Still Waters, Don Roberts does an excellent job of describing the challenges of stillwater fly fishing. I would like to share with you a passage from page 6 of that volume.*"Rivers are so obvious in their beauty that they inspire infatuation. Lakes require study, commitment. Rivers flow only one way. Lakes have infinite patterns, moods, guises. Rivers are brash and constant in their conversation. Lakes are quiet, haunting, lyrical."
