Big T in Moraine Pk 06Sep13

The beauty of Rocky Mtn Natl Pk can not be overstated. For several hours before checkout I fished the Big Thompson right in Moraine Pk and caught a triple of cutthroat, brown and brook. I didn't catch a rainbow for the possible quad in this area. The brookie and cut' were small. I caught mostly 10-12" browns. I threw a double dry of flying ant and caddis and dropped an olive nymph. Most fish rose to the caddis but some to the ant and both received an even greater share of rejections... the nymph took 1/3 of the fish. I spooked a lot of fish but I caught a lot too. The easy getting around this meadow section was needed respite from the prior day's jaunt up to the high alpine.The pic here in Moraine Pk has yesterday's spot in the deep background. It was another nice fall trip to RNMP.
