To the Boat

Another nice day on the ditch, typical April day in Colorado, day starts with sunshine

and blue skies, ends with blizzard and snow. Fish were feeding nicely throughout the day, not fast

and furious but steady. many fish to the hand and net. 

Fished a section of river we had not floated in a year or so, although nice, because there were no other boats, I know why I like the other sections better. Still beautiful with snow capped mountains surrounded by bright blue skies, got to enjoy everyday on the ditch.

Friday's Fishing Tail

I quite counting at 200 spots. It is incredible how many tiny beautiful spots can be on the tail. 

Just love how every tail is different and distinct. What great DNA.

Sights from my recent trip across Wyoming. Vista's far and wide, across the plains as far as you can see.
