Revel in the moment of the catch with this Field and Stream cover from June 1932. As the low sun colors calm waters, an angler leans from his boat, rod in one hand, net in the other to scoop up a lively bass as it breaks the surface. The tension in his stance and the glow of the warm light capture the satisfaction of skill meeting patience. A classic portrayal of early summer fishing, where the quiet fight gives way to a triumphant lift from lake to hand.
