I stumbled across this video teaser for a film coming out called "Drift." This steelhead segment was filmed on the lower Deschutes, where I just returned from (read "The Myth of the Steelhead.") There's a line in here which really sums up steelheading for me, and for that matter, all trout fishing.
"Fishing beautiful water, well."
That is all we can expect from fly fishing, and exactly what I strive for: fishing beautiful water well, and thoroughly. It's not just about the fish, it's about the place and the experience. If the fish are there, and they're happy, you may hook up. But if not, you move on to the next beautiful piece of water, and fish it. Well.
