The bmc ran a shuttle for us and sheldon and i got the float n b happy on
stung n swung up a lot of lil guys

went back n did camp stuffs


i think that was the freezing rain dog with explosive diarrhea up every 2 hours to let him outta the tent night

got up enjoyed sunrise and went n did fishy stuffs

passed the cantalopes

unintas got dusted

sun peeked out identified some targets from the bluff
snuck down with stealth intercepted and initiated contact

---

well yeah

had a few more shots but the gittin down the muddy bluff with stealth part didnt happen
made some calls figured out an itinerary and called it another day fishin

and headed back to browns
harvest moon  and campfire warmth ftw

rolled up n out early hump day

really wanted to head back to the gorge
the troots were going off on the calibrates hatch the day before and i figured id find a pooper or 2
also figured id be rollin into steamboat in the dark
decided to slow roll east instead

another gourgie start to another fishtober day

stopped at bridgeport, pipeline and swung a few at swingin bridge

a sympathy of colors in a land of rich history


aside from a occasional orange clad hunter rig the river corridor was empty

thought about throwin the boat in and walking the wildlife drive shuttle
but kept to the no sleep till steamboat mantra goin

sheldon misses his mom

no squawfish sighted or swung up

---

special place
special time of year

---

stopped in at the old ft davey crocket 2 bar ranch and ladore institute of higher learning



im pullin a ladore  permit this year
i could feel it in the brisk fall air

pounded out the miles with the jcm's lonesome jubilee stuck in the disc player
sunbeam maybell to the kind castle in craig
rolled into the boat noonish to the we should go fishin suggestion of my host
the dude and dog abides
sheldon made a new friend cosmo

fished the upper yampa on a stretch the nature conservatory and local orgs were able to purchase and do some stream improvement work on


stuck a few nice fish

[/QUOTE]

the next day dawned
and the view from my bros spread above the elk didnt suck


did a lil fluff n buff on the hog
the hog shops on 13th just down from the james brown soul center of the universe bridge

so we crossed the tracks and swung a few up



hooked a small brown and outta nowhere a 20+" bow chased him and repeatedly headbutted took swipes at him even though he wasnt gonna fit in his mouth


ended up at sunpies for buck tacos n riverside spirits
hit the 40 road 420 ish to make it to tabernash and the hudge ones crib fore dark

Awesome pics! looks like a great trip, thanks for sharing

[GpaRon]

Looks like a cool trip, nice to take off and explore with little pressure from others.  The pics were great, I'm sure the awesome sunsets were even better in person.
Thanks for sharing and making us jealous.
