Fishin' Arki Headwaters 31Aug13

Daryle, Greg and I fished the Arkansas "headwaters" at Rincon and the Chaffe Co line before a storm on Sunday blew the river up into chocolate milk. We caught a number of browns and rainbows... shown here are my nicer ones: a 17" brown and 16" rainbow. I did much better after switching the trailing fly to a rainbow warrior but I did get some on my red wire BHPT like thing and some on a mercury RS2. Somehow we avoided the storm Sunday as we went alpine up the Middle Fk of the S Arkansas river in Greg's jeep (masterful driving up a really challenging road). Fishing was only "OK" for beautiful 6-10" Colorado cutthroats in the stream that day... all the action was topside on Adams and terrestrials.
