    I always try to work upstream. The fish has eyes in its head, not its ass. Sneaking up behind them is always easier. Plus natural food will drift downstream. If I cast upstream the fly comes back down to me, naturally. Trout will always be suspicious of a mayfly swimming upstream.
    Sex is fairly easy. The head gives it away. The short nose and jaw of a female (hen) is always going to be smaller. The jacks (males) will have a longer snout and jaw, with the larger males getting quite a hook at the end of the jaw.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
