TRIP SUMMARY

A very fun day on the Denver South Platte! Flows dropped quite a bit from the big rains earlier in the week, and the fish were ready to feed. Clouds and approaching rain made the sight fishing for Carp difficult but still had some excellent shots. The Smallmouth Fishing was epic though! Fish were feeding aggressively in the deep buckets near structure and deeper riffle seams. The Trusty Tungsten Jigged Wolly Bugger was the fly of the day.
