I didn't do much fishing in May (I'll try and remedy that in June) but May isn't over yet. So far, here's my entry for fishing picture of the month

Hmmm, well having not submitted anything in this thingy previously, I guess I'll toss this one in:

My first brown trout on my newly built Lamiglas 3wt. First brown I've seen on this water in 2 years as well. Nice to see them again. :D
How do you tie the fly to your hooks without killing them with the thread? I keep cutting them in half.

Looks like there may be a little cutthroat in there too, Craig.

As many of you know I’m about ready to take an extended road trip. So this will be the last time that I select the fish and pic of the month.
Craig is aware of my plans and is probably seeking my replacement as I write. It’s been a lot of fun doing this. But because I don’t know where I’ll be and whether I will have good internet connection capability, it only makes sense to pass the baton to another person .
So this month for May I’m selecting the Brown trout shown by Thatsarumor. for fish of the month. Image
I think it’s a very nice example of the species and deserves to be recognized as such.

For pic of the month it was a toss up in my mind I saw two candidates that I considered. I really liked the shot of the fly fisherman in the float tube posted by Richard. But I’m selecting the shot of the Yucca plant in bloom because it’s a great shot and different. I like to see pictures of flowers and plants in bloom as well as good scenery shots. This qualifies in my mind and that’s why I chose Rayfound’s posted pic.
Image

My congratulations to both.
