Trout after Fly
James Prosek
The meadow was wet with dew and Nick
wanted to catch grasshoppers for bait before the sun dried the grass.
He found plenty of good
grasshoppers. They were at the base of the grass stems. Sometimes they
clung
to grass stem. They were
cold and wet with the dew, and could not jump until the sun warmed them.

Two-Hearted River)
