First Fish of the New Year


 Breaking new barriers for the Floatfisher household for 2013, as we join the Carp rage. Mary rings in 
February with a her first South Platte Carp. We decided to take the February Carp special up with Colorado Skies Flyshop, and learn how to fish the South Platte River right in down town Denver.
What a hoot. The fish are big and powerful even in the cold water, can't imagine what it would be like in warm weather when they really run!


Ms. Floatfisher hooked up.

Kick ass scales of the carp.
