So I'm back in Colorado for the summer, so here's a tr from the first couple weeks..lots of water, we're at 200% snowpack so all the rivers are huge and tough at te moment but they're coming down.

My brother drove out with me and fished some, we hit a big snowstorm just right to ruin some plans so we made the most of it by heading down south. Got into some piggies but fishing was tough, 2 feet of snow made for really cold water temps. We fished some still waters in belly boats, and a few rivers too. Enjoy!







Started off small with selective asshole tailwater trout


Drove up to 13k on pikes peak


Stopped at a Stillwater nearby for stocker action


Found some wild Alaskan salmon and cooked it for dinner


Got this crazy urge to throw streamers to picky fish at dusk, it worked.

Lots of snow, te subie handled it well


Protecting my beef jerky

Found a nice river brown tossing meat

My brother working a run

Big ass cutbow at night


Float tubin

Bro is a Stillwater slayer

Awesome fights were had


More toadage

Nice baetis hatch on the poudre

My Brother left and I fished again..

Storms come just about every afternoon

Bug tying

I've been avoiding reading this tr for the longest time.  I finally caved and I regret it.  You suck.

Update:
Fishing has been good to say the least. High water has made some fishing for clients interesting, but its been good to me. cool water in late june/july is very nice  /'/



fished some lakes, lots of dry fly action

fun on some "small" streams


sorry for the selfies


days off are pretty nice, when the wind blows and holds the skeeters down


big fish on a dry, he ate the carnage hopper

a bird was victim to a backcast, took one to the beak. he survived

some grayling action



i heard him rise on the bank, slapped my streamer on him and it was on. he was a beast, taped a hair over 25x16

I enjoy high water

one more shot of him

more to come, these are just whats on photobucket at the moment! hope everyone is well!  ;D

oh and i finally broke a rod, Mike will be proud, my H2 saltwater 6wt couldn't take all of the action..snapped in the 3rd section right above the ferrule on a big fish!
