Visiting our friends and family this past July and August also allowed me to spend time fly fishing in some beautiful parts of the Pacific Northwest.
Fly fishing is a great approach to travel and an outdoor-centric life because you can cast a fly to some type of fish just about any place that has water. Our trip to the States provided an opportunity for me to visit me some of my favorite waters and to discover some new ones, including a gorgeous stretch of the South Fork of the Snoqualmie that can be scrambled down to during a nasty I-90 traffic jam.
I also encountered a fish I haven't caught with fly rod before, the catfish. |
Some familiar Northwest characters like the small mouth bass and rainbow trout. |
