White Pines save brook trout
Jul 27th, 2019 at 8:32pm  
A seasoned angler, Perich knows what makes a good home for brook trout. 

For one, they need cool water — he said one brook felt like an “ice cube” once out of the stream. And that cool water comes from shade.

Tall, old trees like the white pine can provide shade for these Lake Superior tributaries their entire length through the forest.

...because mercifully there are no telephones on trout waters; because only in the woods can I find solitude without loneliness; because bourbon out of an old tin cup always tastes better out there...

When you come upon old white pine trees please be cautious as cougar likes to take his daily nap upon the branches of an old white pine. Wink
