trout fishing in streams please let me know



One of the most enjoyable days I've had fishing in recent years was
after trudging through two feet of snow for a quarter of a mile to get
to the stream. It was a beautiful sunny, but cold, January afternoon.
Fish were feeding on the surface but would take nothing that I offered.
I finally tied on a Renegade. It was like magic. The fish thought it was
candy. Caught all browns. They were beautiful and fought with vigor. I
didn't even notice my hands were cold until I had to tie on a new fly.
