I was also down on the Boulder this past weekend. I usually don't have much success with the dry flies on the higher elevation lakes there but I'm happy to report that that curse is BROKEN!!! Saturday I caught 20+ cutts ALL on dries. It was phenomenal to say the least. Not 1 brookie caught at the 1st lake on dries (oh well, those cutts were beautiful!!). Headed to Blind on the way back to camp and hopped in our tubes, still throwing dries and managed to finally land my 1st brookie (not ever, just on dries at the Boulder).
The weekend was perfect. The fishing was incredible. The weather was amazing. The mosquitos were horrible, horrible, horrible but, gotta love Boulder Mnt!!!
p.s. Did you head to Lower Bowns at all? We usually like to hit the lake before the sun sets since the dry fly fishing is so good at night, but, not this time. I was SHOCKED at how full the lake was!!
