Tuesday, Jul 3, 2012Quote(s) of the Day: "Williams Ranch located just a short drive from Boulder, Colorado is fly fishing great for colorful rainbow and brown trout. The bite is on and the trout fishing has been good!"
Fishing Highlights:
Patricia gave it her all to catch fish throughout the day but luck was not on our side as fish kept escaping after we hooked them. At the end of the day she landed a nice rainbow and her big smile really made the day!The fishing is good. Clear skies and 60+ degree weather. The water temperature was between 40-43 degrees and Crystal Clear.
