Angling

Is the Royal Governor a one season wonder? (STEVE ANGERS PHOTO)

Fly anglers are a curious lot. Forever looking for the magic fly that will catch many fish. Or big fish. Fly anglers are also creatures of habit. They have flies in their fly box that they will never go to the water with at least two of that pattern in their fly box.

One of the strange phenomena in this is the annual fly that works. That is a fly that the angler tried fishing on a whim and caught fish. Then for the remainder of the season that fly will be magic, producing fish no matter where, or when, it is being fished.
