fly fishing

This series of images are part of my project covering Fly Fishing in Eastern Washington. While attending Central Washington University I had the opportunity to photograph the fly fishing sub-culture. The highly acclaimed Yakima River flows just minutes from campus and provides some of the best fishing the state of Washington has to offer. Here is my interpretation.
