Une truite fario perce la surface à la poursuite d'une mouche sèche — le poisson suspendu en plein saut, son flanc tacheté captant la lumière ambrée et chaude qui sature l'eau en dessous. Glen a peint cela au début de sa carrière, en 1969, et déjà les qualités distinctives sont pleinement formées : le bord diffus du lavis aquarelle, la précision concentrée au centre, le sentiment d'un instant capturé plutôt que construit.
Le lavis ambré doré qui entoure le poisson est techniquement ambitieux — Glen a utilisé la transparence de l'aquarelle pour suggérer à la fois la lumière à travers l'eau et la lueur d'un après-midi d'été, sans perdre la netteté de la forme de la truite.
