You guys tell me there is a big snow storm and I can't join you to watch Danl breaking off fish. Nice pics. Glad you guys were able to get out. It was pretty snowy in Denver on that friday. I'm told 30 inches or so a bit south of me. I'll link up with you guys one of these days . . .or . . or . . .er . . ..I'll just go fish'n. BestWishes, DaveMohnsen Denver |

I bleeve it had more to do with operator error than anything. Although I did buy a new spool of perzactly the same tippet at Charlie's fly shop the next day and only lost one more fish the last two days. The same kind of thing happened at the San Juan this last winter. The first day I couldn't seem to land anything, but after that I seemed to get the hang of the larger, hotter fish. The little native rainbows and goldens don't require such delicate technique to land. I had a real blast fishing with Willi and Charlie. I'm definitely going back someday. Danl |

I thought the weather might bring some fish to the surface to feed on the Olives, but no luck on that. That stretch of river has "world class" fish. They average about the same length as fish from the San Juan, Green, Bighorn etc. but are heavier for their length. This with no other anglers competing for them. The drawbacks are , because of the low water levels at time, there aren't very many fish per mile and aesthetically, it's not as pretty as a mountain river. Runoff's started here. Think you'll have to wait a bit for some stream fishin'. Gonna be checking out the Carp over the next few weeks. Willi |
