"It's summertime and the living is easy"

Sam Cooke

We have passed the peak and have entered the summer season. This is by no means the end of good fishing. It is a time to change tactics and open up to new ideas. Early mornings and late evenings will be more productive. That's not to say every day trip is a wash out. That Fat Lady ain't singing here yet. Below are a few of the reasons we love the summer season.

• Wet Wading! We haven't worn waders in two and a half weeks. Grab a pair of river shorts/pants and fish comfortably in the heat.
• Throwing big rubberleg attractor dry flies and watching "The Mouth" appear.
• Fishing pocket water with the dry/dropper combo.
• Finding out just how many fish are in that riffle.
• Swimming the pool you just fished.
• Rope swing antics.
• The changing light of early mornings and evening sessions.
• G&T's and frozen Margaritas are in season.
• Spey casting dry flies far, far away.
• Micro nymphing.
• That evening rise where time is lost.
• The walk out at night under the moon.
• Small stream trips
