Colorado River

Fly-fished the Colorado River this evening for the first time in a long time.   A #14 caddis was what was hatching and I ended up with 5 browns on the other end of my line by the time I called it a night.  Ryan was fishing without waders like usual and Bobby found himself hooking up with one on a wooly bugger. 

Juls took the pictures here while we fished.  I came back to the car to find her lounging drinking several of Colorado's finest beers...Busch and PBR.  And yes, I did keep one of the 16 inch browns that I caught for dinner.  Julie surprised everyone by eating everything including the skin.  The only part of catching dinner that Juls didn't like was the fish's final moment before a large rock ended his life.  But like they say there are always more fish in the sea.

 

Notice in the one photo I'm waving to Juls as she takes the photo.
