Did I Ever Mention That I Love the Casual Dress?

Caught this nice brown on the casual dress drifted under an indicator.  On my very next cast, I had a bigger trout follow my fly up the water column as I was getting ready to flick another cast to a likely spot.  I pulled the fly out of the water a little too fast though, and the slashing brown disappeared back to the depths.

By the way, this brown came from my favorite stream to fish.  Yes, it is in Central, PA.  No, I won't tell where it is located, but these pictures might help you figure it out.

The Casual Sparrow

This fly has carp nymph written all over it, but with its size and ability to simulate a sculpin I'm sure browns and bass would take it as a baitfish.  Oh!  What is that stuck in the corner of my mouth?  It's soft and chewy with a little bit of bite.
