A Yesterday, or Two

A beautiful waterfall cascading down into a small stream in Western Mass.



In the many years of fly fishing I have been fortunate to fish some fine streams ,in many states.. Most of them quiet small waters, with wild trout. And without a doubt I probably can recall most of what happened on each one of them. Not every exact detail but a few things that always remain in the journals of my mind.


I have put a few photos of some of the places, and sights of a few streams. I could write a book on these streams. I hope you'll enjoy a few of my yesterdays.

A mountain in New Hampshire, in a town that's always first with presidential voting results. Many little streams abound.

This is a favorite little stream in the Delaware Water Gap, Pennsylvania.

While fishing a small stream in Connecticut. A natural woolly bugger stopped to say how's the fishing.

    Brk TRT,

    Oh, Northern New Hampshire in the Notches. What memories myself. I had stomping grounds in Pittsburg NH with great memories of Perry & Indian stream & the Tribs of the CT river.

    I can't think of a better way to start off my day then reading another great post from you on your wonderful blog.........DRYFLYGUY

    Aren't we fortunate to be living in New England? I am proud that we have so much "wild" space available to us..and we don't have to drive enormous distances to reach them..carry on Brk Trt!
