The fishing on the Conejos has been pretty good lately. Troy and Jon were both out on half day trips today and they both had productive days on the water. Troy guided this lower river and caught most of his fish on nymphs. While Jon guided the upper river and they caught most of there fish on dry flies (big old school Jim Fulton style H&L Variants) who knew.

Got Jimmy's?

This morning we had our first real brush with summer. It is a beautiful blue bird day with no wind and a shop full of clients anticipating a great day on the water with the CRA Guides. The water level is up but the fishing has been great. These Conejos fish get extremley wormy this time of year. Yes, that means fish puking up worms in the net "I just couldn't help myself" says Mr. Brown Trout "It just looked to good to pass up" says Mrs. Brown Trout. Any way it is time to start really thinking about Southern Colorado.

I know that we are all looking forward to what is coming in the next couple of weeks.... SALMONFLIES!!!!! We are all ready to see those B-52's flying over the water and I know that you all are looking forward to making some casts to some hungry trout waiting to ambush a struggling stone. With the snow pack being what it was this year we are looking forward to some fantastic dry fly fishing this season.
