Hi-
While fishing yesterday I watched several fish (rainbow trout) follow, take a swipe at, but ultimately turn down the wet-fly I offered. The fish would come up from the bottom, follow the fly closely but at the last instant, turn down the offering. Why does this happen in your best estimation? Did the trout perhaps see me (I was close enough to the fish to watch this happen)? Could there have been something wrong with my fly (that said, I had landed 3 or 4 fish previous to this happening in the same stream with the same fly)?
Any insight or musing would be appreciated...
Thanks,
Seth
