By next Saturday the trout fishing season will have ended.Often I will meet a couple of friends to go fly fishing on the last weekend of the season.It has become a bit of a tradition.We expect that the fishing will be difficult or even grim.Cold gray skies.Big fronts moving in.Few insects hatching and few fish rising.We go anyway.We justify it by saying that the big ones are feeding heavily as they get ready
