The trout streams of the Catskills are often beautiful and clear, but unlike spring creeks they are prone to dramatic flooding at times.  This picture shows flood-swept vegetation fifty yards from and several feet above the normal channel. From Willowemoc Creek, Powerline Pool in New York.

An ant struggles to escape the surface of a Catskill stream.  The black dot on the right is the ant's shadow on a rock on the bottom.  I can see how this would appeal to a trout.  Even I kind of want to eat the thing. From the Beaverkill River, Horton Bridge Pool in New York.
