One of my best days ever in Colorado. Multiple slabs in a variety of shapes, colors and species violently attacked my flies. BIG Rainbows, a Cut-Bow, and a Snake River Cutty were landed on this epic day.
The weather was more than perfect compared to most days at the DS. Little wind, off-and-on cloudy/sunny skies and temperatures hovering around freezing made the day that much more enjoyable. The lack of a crowd was surprising too.
Lately, I have been addicted to throwing throwing streamers. I even said to my buddy while gearing up, “It’s a streamer day all day today.” But after about an hour of nada, I ate my words and switched to a nymph rig. My choice was rewarded with an almost non-stop bite! The fish were not dreaming today. One fish after another aggressively took my presentations. There is nothing on Earth quite like hooking into multiple 20+in. fish within minutes.
Enjoy some sweet photos (not too bad for my new camera phone!)
