Sometimes it’s nice to just go fishing. Most of the times when I’m out on the lake or on the river I’m working. It’s nice to take a break every now and again and just fish. It just so happened I was invited to a wedding in Colorado last month and I decided to take my flyfishing equipment and turn it into an expedition. I was in Centennial Colorado not far from Denver or Colorado Springs. I went to the Platte River early one morning to meet my Guide Tom. The river was quite crowded so I asked my guide if we could go somewhere where there was a lot less traffic. We jumped in the car and went down the road a few miles to a place that was more remote. After looking at the water in tying on three flies we fished a small stretch of the stream maybe 200-300 yards. We worked at area pretty hard but didn’t have any luck so I so we got back in the cars and went down the road a little bit further. This area the water looked little bit different, it had some green moss growing off the rocks. After a few good casts I hooked into a real nice brown trout. It really is nice to just get to go fishing sometimes instead of working at fishing. On the way to the fishing spot a bull elk walls right in front of me. Anyway if you’d like to go fly fishing in western North Carolina. Or lake fishing for largemouth and smallmouth give Michael Lewis a call. Lewis no Clark expeditions. 828-223-0269 http://www.lakelurefishingguides.com
