Default TR - Valles Caldera National Preserve

Excellent report Jim.

I also won a day with only one raffle ticket. Since I got to fish there
twice last season (once each on beats 2 and 3, way upstream) I only bought
one $5 ticket for each season (Spring, Summer, Fall). Didn't get drawn for
the Spring but I did get beat #10 for June 26.

Since I'm not too good at hitting the stream with long casts, I do a lot of
"crawling on my belly like a reptile" and that works ok too.

Jim is right - the tough part is getting your fly to the fish without
spooking them.

It's beautiful up there and it's a fun experience.
