I feel that things have changed since Haig-Brown wrote this or maybe it is just me, but I am not as hopeful as I used to be. 2015 has been a poor year for me - rivers have been closed due to high temperatures and low water, lake fishing has not followed the norms and my friends and I are in agreement that the insect hatches are not what they used to be, yet the fish are still there. One river in particular went catch and release many years ago but the bull trout which is treated as an endangered species in USA are now much more common and this has I believe affected the lies and habits of the wild rainbow trout, especially the juvenile trout. We now have to search for trout in different lies and places and not the familiar old spots.
