I still vividly remember my first fish on a fly. The biology teacher at our
school took students on hiking/amateur radio/flyfishing trips to mountain
lakes. Didn't particularly care for the radio stuff but the fishing, well it
got me hooked. I watched that first trout rise up from the bottom for what
seemed like 100 feet in the clear water. He was locked onto my fly the whole
time. Still don't know how I managed to keep from pulling the hook away
before he turned on it. I'll never forget it. Some lakes we went to were the
Oval lake chain and the incident indicated above occurred where the outlet
of Pear dumps into Boulder lake.
