Another beautiful day fly fishing on secluded waters. My favorite time of year, with all the autumn colors.

On the fly-tying vise today: Soft Hackle Brown Sugar. Using natural hare/squirrel dubbing and natural brown CDC from Troutline. Super effective for browns and cutthroats.

Perfect day of fly fishing. Secluded waters, wild brown trout, and you’re the only one on the water.

Someday @scottflyrod will notice someone who has been using their fly rods for over 35 years and use them on all my secluded waters guide trips.

On the fly tying vise today. One of my top producers - the Brown Sugar by Cory Cuje. I add a coat of Sally Hard as Nails as a clear coat over the wing case. Tied on a size 16 hook and 3.3 copper tungsten by Saluda Beads.
