Flying ants were falling very thick on the water during a beautiful Montana evening in August. They were collected in great numbers in this eddy, which made it difficult to entice a trout with a fly amidst all the naturals, but a few nice browns were fooled.

Photos by Troutnut from Rock Creek in Montana

From Rock Creek in Montana. This 14.5-inch, beautifully crossed cutbow put up one of the best fights I've ever had from a fish anywhere near that size and was one of the most memorable of my 2018 Montana trip, despite not being in the top ten for length. I had to chase it a good distance downstream and thread my rod through some brush to bring it to hand. From Rock Creek in Montana. From Rock Creek in Montana.
