Carp Season in Full Swing

Wait...Carp Season has actually been in full swing for a few months now for those that Carp fish a bunch. I typically am that guy but due some Wedding Planning all Spring my time off was mostly geared towards a few weekends in the Hills Trout fishing with very little Carp action.

Now that things have slowed down and I have more weekends free guess what I'm doing any chance I get? Yep chasing some Goldens!

 Lee with The Fish Fly

Most of you who keep up with Carp around Colorado have probably heard of these two guys, if not checkout their Blog and some great Carp fishing! Hopefully I can get back out again to join these guys for some Golden action around town. If you can't checkout their sites for thew latest in Carp sightings around town, or in Lee's case, monster Carp sightings!

 
Trevor with Fly Carpin

Depending on what the water flows do this Summer you may have to hit the Lakes, otherwise if Lakes aren't your thing and you feel the need to get out on the Platte with some fellow Homeless freinds, enjoy that's where the action has been lately if you frequent REI or drive by Sante Fe Blvd.

Great Weekend With The Guys Down Near Aspen

Another great April weekend in the Roaring Fork Valley with a few close friends. This weekend was a little bit more special seeing how this was one of the last weekends yours truly will be a Bachelor.

Don't go a thinking that the one and only is going to be spending less time on the water, oh no quite the opposite, I have a special lady in my life who doesn't mind me getting out on the water when needed...how can you top that!



Buddies from Atlanta, Bozeman and locally made this a weekend to remember and plenty of fish stories to speak of. More pictures to follow the next few days.
