One Weight Fun On Ten Mile Ck ~ RFSB1 Is The Shizzle 15Aug24

I kept my streak alive, fly fishing for the 4th day in a row. The rains came in last night and messed with flows on the Williams Fk and the Ark Headwaters, so I went local to 10 Mile Ck. These waters are pretty small but a ton of fun in the right conditions (like today @ 58cfs). I pulled off @ Officer's Gulch and loaded up my ultra-ultralight 1 weight, the Rodfather Sage Buster One. Actually my Sage 1 weight will sell now on eBay for ~$400, so it is great that the RFSB1 handled itself so well... it was a blast with these 8"-13" fish. I hiked down ~ 3/4 mile and fished back to the car. I was immediately into some fish. I flung a yellow or UV #16 chubby trailed by a #18 beadhead gold ribbed hares ear. After a while with only one fish on the dropper and plenty on the chubby, I just cut off the trailer. I did not land everything but I did fine; one bigger rainbow took me downstream and then broke off on a rock. Other misses were from insufficient hookups. After a pass @ Officer's Gulch I headed downstream on I70 and just pulled off at another spot (till now untried by me) ~ it yielded too. Yeah, it was a trip re-entering full speed I70 traffic from the grass... Crusher Too can do anything.
