Walking through Hussey’s field, the grasshoppers were everywhere. Late Summer is the prime time for grasshoppers, crickets, beetles and ants to start hatching. Waters are lower and the fish are on the lookout for a big mouthful of food.

Seeing the plethora of grasshoppers as I walked up to the Outlook Pool brought a smile to my face. Fishing imitations on the surface and waiting for the explosive takes is one of the true joys in life, along with Christmas Morning, New Year’s Eve and Thanksgiving.
