High Country

We headed up into the hills to see how my pops can cast a fly rod. Pretty damn well it turns out! We caught a mess of brookies and had a great time. The high creeks are low and slow but produce a ton of little fish. During the bright mid day hours, try to find shady spots and in them you will find fish. While many stubborned and silly people have told me that Cutthroat and Brookies can not coexist, I happen to know for a fact that they can and do in many streams in the area. In such streams I like to return the cuts to the water and keep my limit of Brookies. I suppose the Brook trout must be punished for being more adaptable than its delicate cousin. (I know, I know, one is a Trout one is a Char.)
