Thanks to Wes Bulllion for the stream report and photos. Theaux and Rocky, The following photos were taken during my recent trip to Colorado. My wife, Renee and I traveled around the state in about 7 days stopping in Denver, Aspen, Vail, Rocky Mountain National Forest, Colorado Springs and several smaller towns in between. This was our first visit to the state in search of future Bed and Breakfast location with the buisness plan to offer guide services and cater to fly fisherman. We hope to leave the DC area in about 3 years for this awsome state. I fished the Frying Pan River, Roaring …

The Gunpowder river is flowing at 32 Cfs, is clear and 56 F. The recent rains have made things interesting today in the Hereford zone. Warmer water spilling over the dam coupled with a release planned for this weekend to mitigate the surface water should bring the Gunpowder river up to the mid to low 100 Cfs range through the weekend-think streamers! If you’d rather fish dries, Blue Winged Olives and Caddis have been working this week. Riffles emptying into flats have been the best areas to prospect. Long leaders in the 6 and 7x range are still needed to trick wild fish in low …

Thanks to Josh for the stream report and pictures from Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I just got back from Jackson. Incredible. We threw size #2-5 hoppers with a soft hackle as the dropper. We caught so many fish that a had to replace three leaders in one day. Did I mention that we used 3X tippet? In all I probaly caught 60 some fish. We generally fished three rivers, the Snake, the Hoback, and the Gros Venture. However many other people fished Flat Creek which had so much fishing pressure that we decided to avoid it. I would have to say that the best river for …

Western Maryland has some great fly fishing opportunities in remote areas and for gorgeous wild trout. We answer many emails and phone calls inquiring about the fishing in this region. The latest follow up report came from Nick S. who just returned from his first trip out to WMD. Jason, Thanks for the info and pointing me in the right directions. As for the fishing, it was fun and humbling. I did not get as much quality time on the water as I was hoping, but was impressed by both the Savage and NB in terms of beautiful settings, variety of fishing situations, and quality …

The Gunpowder river is flowing at 32 Cfs, is clear, and is 56 F. Tricos in the #24 range are still present in the flats above Falls Rd through Bunkerhill most mornings. Cooler nights have pushed them later into the morning. If you’re starting early this weekend stop in and pick up some reverse hackled tricos and a spool of 7X before you hit the river. Caddis in the #16 range have been coming off midday and have been accounting for a number of fish this week in the riffles. Jason has been out along the Gunpowder this week shooting lots of riffles full of …
