By the tail.  Wild steelhead caught and released on the Deschutes River in Oregon.

Fly fishing photography takes a good measure of luck and timing. Catching a wild steelhead with late afternoon sun lighting the fall color of the trees is a perfect example.

As you can see in the photo detail, the drift boat is definitely hand crafted. I believe this one represents the third drift boat Dennis Nagel has built since I've known him.  Dennis designed this boat precisely to float the Wood River.
