Geoffrey Norwood is a lucky man: he has a daughter, Katie, who loves him enough to have bought him a half-day of guided fly fishing from the Altamont Anglers! Geoffrey invited his brother Allen along for a trip to the Davidson River, guided by AA guide Teo Whitlock, on a brisk Saturday in February, 2006. The cold weather had the fish in a bit of a funk, but the intrepid anglers soldiered on to some success, caught on photographic disc and presented here:

Here's Geoffrey on 2/25/06 giving a thumbs up while his guide, Teo, gives a "trout up" (click the image to zoom in on that nice brown trout)...

Allen captured the action leading up to the victorious "thumbs up" as Geoffrey kept a tight line while Teo manned the net (click to enlarge)
. Allen's reward for his camera work was to put brother Geoffrey behind the lens for this shot of him with this Davidson River rainbow (click to enlarge)
But the best fish of the day was this fat rainbow trout that Teo is helping to pose for the camera: a typical Davidson River rainbow on a typical day in February (click to enlarge)
