What a stretch of weather!

Summer arrived with little fanfare but delivered a nice stretch of weather for us to enjoy. I count seven days with perfect temperatures low humidity and almost cloud free skies. This morning the breeze came up out of the south as the tide started to fall making this afternoon one of the coolest of the stretch.

I spent the solstice on the water with a couple from Colorado both sort of new fly casters with great enthusiasm and real willingness to lean. You can see how perfect the weather was but the fish made me earn my pay that is for sure. The morning started off in a spectacular way with several in the first half hour then as if someone threw a switch nothing for a couple of hours. After several changes of flies and locations they started to come again. After lunch it was better but still not near as good as the morning had been. No one ever said that being a guide was easy.

Still a great day to be on the water with great company and a few fishey friends, I hope that the weather pattern is set for the summer a little rain and a few clouds followed stretches of beautiful days.
