The Contented Angler
Shenandoah Fly-fishing
These pictures were taken between May 14 - 16, 2002. We visited the Shenandoah
streams for some brook trout fishing, camping, and most importantly, relaxation.  
These are some of the most relaxing pools we've ever seen. The March Brown, Gray
Fox, Yellow stonefly and various caddis joined us.  We shared a  7.5 foot 3-weight
which we feel is a perfect rod for these streams and made things even more enjoyable.
"But the real way to know a little river is not to glance at it here or there in the
course of a hasty journey, nor to become acquainted with it after it has been
partly civilised and spoiled by too close contact with the works of man. You must
go to its native haunts; you must see it in youth and freedom; you must
accommodate yourself to its pace, and give yourself to its influence, and follow
its meanderings whithersoever they may lead you."

of our hosts. This is the Brook Trout's
domain and we enjoyed these wild streams
and wild colorful trout.
At one pool it was hard to keep these little
gems off the hook.
