Gut Pile Report post Posted July 30, 2012 I finally got a vacation in the summer time!! My fam goes to Almont,CO every year, but because I'm in the marina industrustry....kinda hard to get away in the summer. This I fly fished everywhere Durango, Montrose, Ouray, Silverton, Gunnison, Crested Butte, and every out of the way creek & beaver ponds I could find. It was a much needed break in a stream waving a stick I've attached a few underwater pics of a couple nice Colorado Cutthroats and a lil Brook Trout. Almost all dry fly fishing too! It was awesome!

AntlerObsession Report post Posted July 30, 2012 Sounds like an awesome trip! That drive from Durango to Montrose is the most beautiful stretch of highway! Absolutely breathtaking! A great way to spend a little vacation time!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snapshot Report post Posted July 31, 2012 Awesome.! My best fish on a fly in Colorado was 24" Rainbow on the Taylor river below the dam. I hooked, and lost, what was probably a good 10lb. fish in that section also. Mysis shrimp was the key fly. Took a float down the Gunnison and caught alot of fish.
