2011/ Colorado

[DUB]

Look closer DG,two different spots, and yes we have fished both. Three trips in a row and I am still catching 50/50 Browns and Bows all the way up to the Power Line. I was suppose to be there today but had to watch my Grand Daughter. I will be at the obvious spot at sunup tomorrow for a few hours fishing before the football games. Hint hint DG, you are invited! The hot patterns for me have been Trout emergers size 14, and PT's size 18. Hope I see you there. Oh, dont yell as I plan on nursing a hangover!

No, I meant familiar, like I have caught that fish at some point. Actually, I haven't fished there much since November, and almost none last summer. And I only get up at sumup to hunt ducks in the middle of winter, but if I can drag myself out this morning, I may stop by and say hello, depending on how many people are there. One Sunday there were 8 rigs in the lot, with temps barely above freezing. Was I ever that crazy?

DG, I started at 7:00AM. I do pretty good this time of year if I can fish before the sun hits the water. I dont know why, but for me, it's always been that way. Guess thats why I like snow days on that stretch. I finished about 10:00 AM
I still caught 50/50 Bows to Browns today, except I didnt catch any Bows over 15 inches


I did manage a few nice Browns along with the normal 12inchers.




Trout Emergers and PT's again.

Fished today down there, did pretty good. Ratio was 70/30 browns to bows, and some of those bows were pretty obvious hatchery slugs (gnawed off fins), albeit fat and healthy. Nothing big, no hatch.

...70/30 browns to bows....

... a one hundred fish day in the middle of the winter ??

[DG]

Argh, my arm, my arm!!

No, those are percentages. 27 to 11 in 8 hours on the water. I was more than happy.

[DUB]

I would love to get down there, but I tweeked my back at work. I am on Ibuprofin, and icepacks for a few days.
Just curious DG, what were the hot patterns?

Sent you the list in private, but you know what I fish most. Hope your back improves. Try that asian massage place down by the USFWS offices. Hee Hee.

That massage place down by the USFWS is how I threw my back out!
My PM box hasn't worked in over a year, but you are right, I know what you were using.
