Holiday Fly Fishing Colorado Style!



Another Great Winter Fishing Day Out!

It's Thanksgiving week and the weather is superb, what to do? Head to the Hills, skip the ski slopes and get some fishing in.

Nothing like a nice 60' weather day to make things much more enjoyable and brown trout fishing still in full swing. Grab some streamers and enjoy some late season fishing if you can make it out.

Happy Thanksgiving from Fly Fish Addiction!



Happy Thanksgiving to all our FFA Fans!

I took a break from our annual Thanksgiving trip to Florida to see my family and we decided to stay in Colorado. No Saltwater fishing for me and family time but we spent time with my Wife's family instead.

All was not lost and I was able to get out for some fishing with friends and enjoy some incredible weather up in the Hills!

Happy Holidays to all of our FFA Friends

Fall Brook Trout Fishing Colors




Fall Brooky Colors

This is my favorite time of the year to get out to fish and for good reason. Brook trout watching can be as much if not more fun than fishing. I enjoy taking pictures some days more than yep, fly fishing.

Something to be said about capturing all aspects of a gorgeous fish at it's peak. Spawning colors bring out some amazing light as well as colors on these fish. The next time you feel the need (we all do at times) to grab a few to eat...think about how many more days this fish may have to showcase these colors for others to see.

Don’t Overlook Conservation’s Role in the Economy



By Gaspar Perricone, Co-Director of Bull Moose Sportsmen’s Alliance & John Land Le Coq, Founder of Fishpond, Inc.
Article 

Denver’s recent Presidential debate offered discussion on an array of issues intended to answer the question of who is best suited to serve as the leader of our nation. For many of us who live in the West, one topic was mysteriously absent: the candidates’ positions on conservation and public lands. This omission did not go unnoticed.

Neither President Obama nor Governor Romney (nor the moderator) recognized the sportsmen, farmers and ranchers, or environmentalists that have looked after America’s great outdoors for generations. And most germane, they appear to have overlooked the connection between the conservation of our outdoors resources and the economy and jobs.

Throughout the West, jobs and the economy are synonymous with outdoor recreation and conservation. And it’s not just those who spend their weekends in the grandeur of the Rocky Mountains that benefit; it is also a boon for retail trade, manufacturing, and tourism, to name a few. According to the Outdoor Industry Association, outdoor recreation supports 6.1 million jobs while generating $646 billion in spending, $39.9 billion in federal tax revenue, and $39.7 billion in state/local tax revenue, with a total economic impact of $1.06 trillion annually. As we continue to fight our way out of the recession, ignoring those kinds of economic numbers doesn’t make sense for either candidate running for President.
