"Fence Line"

Went for an extended drive yesterday to get out, ended up in South Park, over 

Tennessee Pass. What a spectacular drive and a far amount of snow, so very nice to see.

Go a chance to visit a couple of new shops I have never been in, Colorado Angler, owned by Andrew Petersen.  A really nice shop in Silverthorne. Now proudly hanging some original Brian Kuchynka Photography in the shop, I am very pleased and honored. 

Also stopped by Minturn Angler in Minturn, Co. Also a nice small town shop, always nice to see someone tying at the desk.  What a great day!

Photo of the Day- "Rear View Caddis"

A flattened out, warped rear view of the beloved Caddis Fly. It has been the month of the caddis.

Must be filling the boxes.

Happy December 26- Black Wednesday

As we work off the food, sweet and alcohol (for some) for the past couple of days, we try to settle back in to the normal routine, well at least until this weekend and then we do it all over again. THEN it is over and the countdown to fishing gets to serious business. Need to finish tying the spring and summer patterns.  Filling the nearly empty favorites, topping off the secondary favorites and letting the so-so ones ride it out. What will the new HOT Flies be this year, what must we have to catch fish? Think I will just stay with the patterns that work day in and day out
