Bows In Low Flows With The Colo 13Nov23

What awesome Nov weather we have ~ sunny in the low 60°s. How should I celebrate Kala's birthday? Hit the PT of course. :) Back on the Front Range during the shoulder season begs for outings to the Pueblo Tailwater. It is flowing ~220cfs and is a bit turbid from turnover in the rez. I had chores early so hit the water about 10am and met plenty of other fishermen with similar ideas. Grrr... undeterred. I've been dreaming of some big fish again and toted the mighty Rodfather Colorado S2 onto the river at Nature Center. Load the canon. I saw plenty of bug sign, mostly midges but also a late AM fall BWO hatch. Fish were eating emergers as it started and sipping spinners at the end. My Destiny's Child did well during the hatch. Nobody ate the weight today and when the mayfly wasn't chosen... the Awesome Midge took the rest. I caught plenty of fish this day but only fished the big weir, the farm and the opposite bank as everything else was taken. Some dudes camped at the hook weir hole for 3 hours. I ultimately left NC for Valco and caught some more. I caught quite a few cutbows but nothing near 20"... I saw them but didn't fool them this time. Best were 18"ers. Decent but still improving IMO; plus I need to find a lower load day.
