THE RAINBOW TROUT

These very beautiful chromolithographs by Sherman Foot Denton are from the Annual Report of Fisheries of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 1895 – 1905.

“To look at the Male Brook Trout or the Atlantic Salmon on a cold and snowy January night is to admire the beauty of the fish we fish for…and will soon again. For if the truth be known, it may well have been the fish prints of S. F. Denton that provided the comfort to see many angler through the long and fishless winter.” The American Fly Fisher – The Fish Prints of S. F. Denton Vol 20, No 3. 1994
