Sea Trout caught fly fishing in Provo UT

The sun peeks over the horizon. A gentle mist rises from the Provo River. The water glistens in the early light. A fly fisherman stands knee-deep in the clear stream. His rod arcs gracefully. The line dances through the air. It lands softly on the water's surface. Ripples spread outward. A flash of silver beneath. A trout rises. It takes the fly. The battle begins. The rod bends. The line sings. The fisherman smiles. Nature's beauty surrounds him. A perfect morning on the river. Memories are made. The trout is landed. A quick photo. Then release. The cycle continues. A day well spent.
