Peter and Dick came up from New Mexico to fish a couple of days with me this weekend. We fished the Taylor and Gunnison rivers and saw some good hatches and lots of fish. The guys did great and caught a lot of really nice wild fish, like this nice…
Julie does better each time out on the river now, and it’s a joy for me to watch her progress. She had a really great day today and it was lots of fun. She is the master of the wiggle set!
Dick had an excellent day on the river today, fishing nymphs early and throwing a hopper-dropper rig later on. He landed a lot of really nice fish, including a big rainbow just over 20 inches and another chunky rainbow nearly 19 inches long. It was an awesome day! Thanks Dick!
Peggy and Betsy did very well on the river yesterday, hooking up with a lot of beautiful wild trout on dry flies. Peggy caught this very pretty brown trout here just as the Green Drakes and PMDs were starting to hatch. And then it really got good! Great job ladies!

Had a fun day with Tom and John today, fishing mostly dry flies throughout the day. The early morning clouds and little bit of rain at the start helped the fishing, and the guys caught fish into the late afternoon. John caught this really nice brown around midday on a…
It was nice to share a day on the river today with two very accomplished anglers who both like to throw dry flies with bamboo. The fish were stubborn and it made for a tough day. But we eventually got some cloud cover and some bug action, and the guys…
Their husbands are going to have to step it up if they want to keep up with Julie and Nell. The ladies did well today fishing dry flies and catching some nice wild brown trout, even though the fishing was a bit slow at times. Nell did an excellent job…
We are experiencing some of the best dry fly fishing of the season right now. I’m looking forward to getting my clients on some nice fish.
