Here's my submission....not the most visually arresting or colorful, but for me, fly fishing has always been about spending quality time with my dad. This picture makes me think of so many possibilities...a long walk full of great conversation, the anticipation of the first glimpse of water, quality time on our favorite stretch of river in the world, and most importantly, shared moments that will last forever with the best fishing buddy a guy could ask for.

Someone must have zeroed in on the fact that it's my wife picking the winner.... :lol: Seriously, that's a timeless image right there.

OK, I'll try it. This a pic my brother took of me a mile up the north fork of the King's river above the inlet to Wishon Lake. It was a hard bushwacking, rock climbing, slog. But this pool was between two waterfalls. The small sizing of the image does not do the water justice.

It was a very special trip with my brother.

Isn't that what FF is all about? It's not necessarily all about the fishing, but the memories will last a lifetime...

Nice bendo!
