Monday, Oct 1, 2012Quote(s) of the Day: "What a fantastic day of flyfishing...my hand is getting tired from all of the fish."
Fishing Highlights:
A cool fall day on South Boulder Creek made for some hot fishing. Lately the mornings have been a little slower due to night time temps, but today we were hooking fish consistently right away. The rod seemed to have a bend in it until lunch, and even more in the afternoon. A good combination of hungry fish and a good fly selection made for an epic day.The fishing is fantastic. Partly Cloudy skies and 56-59 degree weather. The water temperature was between 44-47 degrees and Crystal Clear.
