Rod, and his young friend, Vincent, who is visiting Alberta from France, joined me on the Oldman River today. While Vincent is an avid fisher in France, he had never fly fished before. We spent some time working on his cast and talking about reading a river and then set him loose. He was a very quick study and was soon casting proficiently to locations on the river where one would expect to catch a fish. Vincent caught several fish today including this good looking cutthroat trout. Several fish were lost and many other strikes were enjoyed. Most of our success today was with dry flies, the most productive being a royal wulff or a royal trude. Despite the occasional rain shower and thunder, we enjoyed a great day in the mountains.
