  1. I went to Farminton, New Mexico which is about a 1/2 hour drive from where the San Juan

    river comes out of the Navajo dam. I went at about the same time of year that you will be

    in Scottsdale. The river was in full flood. The only place that you could fish the river was just

    below the dam. It is a great fishery with over 3000 fish per mile and only about 1/4 the size

    of the Bow. Lots of small flies in the 18-26 range. The big hatches are Midges.

    Lee's Ferry is also a good place to try.

  2. Well I am not making it out this weekend but last weekend was magical. Between my son

    and I we caught and released close to 90 cutthroat trout. (1) was 21 inches, (7) were 20 inches

    and the rest were in the 12-19 inch range. We caught 99% of the fish using a parachute

    Blue Wing Olive in a size 18-22. A few of the holes that we fished had anywhere from 25-45

    fish raising at one time. All I can say, it was a great way to end the fishing year for us.

  3. Hello everyone

     

    I just purchased a pair of Simms Guide waders from a store in Whitefish, Mt. The

    store is called LakeStream Fly shop. They have to older Classic Guide wader ( the

    tan color before they went to the two grey color wader), anyway they had them on sale

    for $174.95us. I thought this was a great price. With shipping it cost me $203.50

    Canadian. Do you think this is a good deal or not ?

  4. I am new to this forum, but I have been fly fishing for 33 years. 30 of those

    years have been flyfishing stillwaters. But I was born and raised fly fishing

    the Elk River and tribs in B.C. I have also fished every lake in the East Kooteney's

    for the past 30 years. So in the future I sure hope to post some topics and

    some of the trips that I take. I have lived in Calgary for the past 20 years or

    so, and I do fish some of the waters in Alberta. So you might hear from me from

    time to time on this forum.

     

    So Hello to everyone, and even though I do not know you Birchy I hope your

    procedure goes well.
