Bernie and Cathy were fly fishing in the Parkland Region of Manitoba in June. Bernie's wife Cathy caught this beauty at the north end of Patterson Lake in the shallows. Well done Cathy!

Bagging a Big Brown Along the Tulles
I came across this sequence while editing pictures today. A mustard yellow brown was busily gulping down fat head minnows along a section of tulles. Larry and I happened along and our buddy Phil who was fishing a bit deeper pointed out the commotion so we set up a trap and it did not take long for our aggressively feeding brown to take the offering 18 inches below Larry's strike indicator.
The entire sequence was recorded by Phil Rowley. Thanks Phil for the cool sequence of pictures.

Lake White Fish on the Fly
It was smokin hot today but the chironomid fishing for lake white fish was pretty good. The hottest day of the year caused lots of recreational boaters and their families to seek cooler temperatures at Sylvan lake. My buddy Larry and I had to break in Larry's new 20 hp motor and of course we took the fly rods along. We set up in 8 feet of water and fly fished with black and red ice cream cone chironomids. We caught lake whites in most places we stopped. Lots of fun!
