<p>Way to go JC! Congrats! Let me know if you get down around Pagosa. The water is low but the fishing has been good.</p>
I’ve heard it is going to be dry flys or power bait only on the river next year!
Sorry I missed you on the Guad this year. Hopefully I will see you SW CO this summer. Tight lines!
All we need is a hurricam to hit in the right spot, and we are good for many years. It will happen eventually, it always does. This has been a long run though.
Thanks for all your sage advice over the years JC. And the inspiration for the “JC’s Salmon Taco”. I have caught more fish with that fly than all others combined.
As Art said the fish in the Guad will be rejoicing, but the fish in CO have no idea what they are in for. I know you will kill it this year in the comps. I’ll see you at the one in Durango this summer and hopefully we can meetup for some fishing. You are always welcome in Pagosa! Godspeed!
I have seen the same behaviour Alex. When I was young and sneaking into venues, the rule was, move fast and look confident. It pretty much always worked…
And the run below S-turn is a long slow run refered to as “Red Horse Run”. There is a riffle 2/3s of the way down Red Horse that I do not know what the name is. The two branches reconnect and your not too far from Pott’s
My only hope with feeding is to ensure we get as many fish as possible through the hot months. Any time your catching LOTS of big fish, the excitement does drop. Go spend some timne in the San Juan in NM. And that is a natural river full of big fish. This holds true for trout, bass, tuna, whater. I feel very appreciative to be able to fish a river where we can catch big fish. Thanks Jimbo!
Thanks far all you do Jimbo! Did the board give a reason for voting down the feeding?
Can’t wait for the rest of the story. I’m in Pagosa now. I’ve been here since 7/8 and head back to TX 10/10. The rain has been messing up a lot of fishing, but when I can get out,, it has been good.
I was fishing the ledge at #5 when the truck went off the bridge. It seemed like he just drove off the bridge. It was a loud bang for sure. Crews were there almost instantly.
I normally catch 2-3 pairs of sun glasses a year in the Guad…..
