Rainbow Falls This Week's Conclusion

Back up the hill Monday night for the final trip of the "weekend". Mondays are better with Monday Night Fishing. Great to have fishing just up the hill.

We hit the falls section and all caught some nice fish. Dad landed a few 20 inchers (putting on a RF clinic like an experienced Member). Mom did really well. She picked up the fish fighting technique and was fighting fish like a pro right away (see previous post). This is a great tip if I haven't mentioned it already.  

I walked up and around to Ute Lake. I was fishing with an experiment streamer and was getting some good takes in the creek. Four or five casts in and this nice bow hit. What bit was a 17" male
Donaldson's Super Trout. If you fish RF you know this class of fish to be a little feisty. Hooking up with these guys in still water is a very cool experience! An unexpected treat courtesy of RF.  There is something about moving water that I can't keep away from but I'm starting to get the still water thing. I need to get out on some still water with Mr. Kleis and get schooled. Spring, Spinney?

Was a really nice evening and was good that we got out Monday before the deluge. Hard week for Colorado. The water we need. Just not so fast.
