Rollin'


Keepin' it rollin' in to another month. We loaded up the rig for another as the weather looked like it was
to hold up till at least Monday this next week. I liked what I saw with light showers and overcast ski's,
we would see if the Colorado would give up a few nice fish on streamers, it did not disappoint.
 Craven's Dirty Hippy in both the Brown and Rainbow trout patterns continue to catch a lot of fish, whether in Montana, Washington or Colorado, they have a hard time resisting these little devils.
Ms. Floatfisher kicking' it in the back channel on the lower Colorado. The weather was incredible for November 1st.
 Fish where very active on midges today , black zebra with golden brown ice dub 
head was the ticket today.

Spooky MO!

 One last shot of the crazy ass fog and river scenery from the our Missouri River fishing last week.
With Halloween tomorrow, this is fitting as it very eerie with the mountain peeking through.
Happy Halloween.

Stressing the Method

Putting the Sage Method through the rigors on very large fish. It crazy that these fish will bend these rods right into the cork time after time. It did finally give out as it will be sent back to sage for repair
as it snapped in the butt section finally. What a great problem to have! Breaking rods on large fish.
