Winter Season Rainbow
Fishing is in—at least in places where the night temperatures are not dropping to -40! Theo Bakelaar sent a great photo of a big rainbow that he took in a large Holland lake. The fish were exhibiting pre-spawn jumping activity, and it took an orange fly with a bead head—check out the fish’s mouth. Those of us in the more frigid parts of the world are awaiting our spring steelhead season—tying orange, pink, scarlet red, chartreuse eggs and other bright imitations for the coming season.
Not only big, but beautiful.
