I'm not a biologist.
But I do have enough common sense to analyze data, listen to experts, and pay attention to the world around me. Consequently, I'm aware that it isn't wise to fish for trout as the thermometer goes up.
It is more nuanced than "don't fish when it is hot" though. Air temperature is something to consider, but water temperature and dissolved oxygen are significantly more important. Today I talk about how this works, how it impacts trout, and what you might do to be a more conscientious angler.
