In keeping with the “our trout waters are too hot to fish safely” theme, check out some stillwater flies to use.
If you fish in froggy water—slow-moving, maybe a bit muddy—you need to have damselfly nymphs in your fly box. They work well in long slicks in trout water or even in high-elevation trout ponds and lakes.

Beavers have long been known to be ecosystem engineers and drastically change the stream in many ways. The fur trade and the trapping…
