What a great day for a rod & ride in Pueblo so I turned the Crusher around after grabbing the Subway sammy. With the Foundry racked, all set I thought, though a little late departing @ 10:15am to assure I'd catch some of the late AM fall BWO hatch. No matter... except at Fort Carson exit on I25 I remembered I left my fly boxes up on the tying desk... ARGH. I headed back home again and got the bugs. I arrived at the PT just before noon and fished ~3hrs and caught a half doz rainbows, including one super-fat 18"er (in hand) and another decent 18"er (release). The #22 FOD, #22 blue glass bead silver surfer and #22 black beadhead candy cane were the most productive. Visibility is improving a bit to 8" but flows were up significantly from when I checked yesterday evening to hatch the plan. I felt the second increase while I was out on the water. I was off the water departing Nature Center at ~3:15pm and up at the Lk Pueblo parking pretty quickly. I was hungry so had to eat and change into bike stuff - at 3:50pm I checked sunset timing and found it'd come at 4:20pm... ARGH. I chose to head home rather than ride the darkness. I need to implement better as I think the plan was perfection. Oh yeah - when I left Kala said, "Why are you wearing Greg's shirt?"
