Sea Trout caught fly fishing in Provo under clear conditions

The sun rises over the Provo River. A fly fisherman stands knee-deep in crystal clear water. His rod bends as he casts upstream. A brown trout rises to the surface. It takes the fly with a splash. The angler sets the hook. The fish darts downstream. It leaps from the water. Sunlight glints off its scales. The fisherman plays the trout skillfully. He nets it gently. A perfect catch on a perfect day. The trout swims away as he releases it. The river flows on. Another cast. Another chance. The cycle continues. Nature's beauty surrounds them.
