Dirty Water Day

This morning I watched the river go from fishable to NON- catchable.  So this evening we decided to sit out on our deck while drinking a bottle of wine, and watch another storm come across the mountains.

Wonder what fishing will be tomorrow??????

Post Proposal Fishing Trip

Scott is no longer available, because he just proposed to his long time girl friend.

Once again Danny is only happy when he hooks the fish, not when he gets his photo taken.

This was Danny's last fishing trip.  He is headed back to work.

Darlene's Early Morning Guided Trip

I have the best guide.  He put me onto many fish this morning.

Caught lots of them on a purple hopper.

Ms. Floatfisher--check out my new life jacket.

The guide had to do some fancy maneuvering to get me to the place to catch this rainbow.

I had to hang onto to it tightly, because I didn't want it to take a header into the boat.

New Hat

Bill caught this brown early in the morning.

Bill got a Grand Slam today...a brown, rainbow, and cutthroat.

This was the cutthroat.

We had to take time to look at the scenery.

Morning Float

Chuck was on his game plan today!

We fished with double dries all day.

Danny is having fun (he told me he smiles as he is catching the fish).

Blast From the Past

I knew Steve a long long time ago.

Steve enjoyed his first float trip.

Steve's college buddy Tom got to see a lot of fish but was unable to touch one.

An Early Start

Fishing was much better this morning.  Danny even said he needed to put on a jacket.

Fishing was good!!!

Chuck promised in writing that he wouldn't miss another fish.  That lasted 1 fish!!!

Spinney Is Turning Over

Chris caught a 21 incher on the river and also on Spinney.

The lake temperature was 72 degrees at 18 inches below the surface.

Hard to catch fish!!!!

Scott's Day On The River

Had A Swimmer Today

This is just one of the rainbows Jay caught today.

Rob--the swimmer.

Rob laid his rod down in the boat to take a dip and cool off.

New fishing attire??? modeled by Rob.

Megan's Last Day of Fishing

Catching all these fish caused Megan's fingernail polish to wear off.

Nice job Megan!!!!

Chris is a new member of the 21 inch club.

The Kansas Heat Was Here Today Too

Ken didn't miss too many strikes today.

Check out the orange spots on this brown.

Wes enjoyed catching fish today!!!

Grandfather/Granddaughter Fishing Trip

Smile Chris!

Smile Megan!!

Chris ended the day catching a good sized rainbow.

Smiling Clients, Warm Weather, and No Wind Makes A Perfect Day On the River

Wes had a wonderful day!!!!

Ken enjoyed catching some of the larger fish in the river.

Another fish was fooled by a dry fly.

Couples Day

Ron showing one of many fish.

This is the reason I take people fishing (smile).

Rain and More Rain. We Need It!!!

There isn't enough water going down the river to clean the dirty water on a daily basis.

Stone Bridge to Salida East Float

Oops!!!!!

I like Pat's new hat.

Pat was successful in landing some nice fish today.

A Beautiful Morning On Spinney

My boat is awaiting the arrival of clients.

A lot of nice sized fish were caught today.

Upstream Run

The water is gin clear.

This brown had very unique coloring.

Once again, John has a smile on his face when he catches a fish!!
