Re: [VFB] Aspen trip
When I first got to the spot I was going to fish, there was a guide with two clients. One had landed about a 20" brown and the other about a 24" bow. When I finally got back with my license and some flies I fish the weed bed where the 24"er was hiding. He came up about three times and looked at my fly, but no takes. I really couldn't complain much because the fishing was a little slow for everyone else. I quit around 2:30 with frozen feet. Man that water was cold. The wind didn't help much either.

[VFB] Aspen trip
Went to Aspen for a family reunion. My brother in law turned 70, so we all got together to give him two surprises. One when he got home from work and we were all in his living room yelling SURPRISE! The next day our sister in law rented a room on the top floor of the Challet facing Aspen Mountain. They are both avid skiers so it was very appropriate. I actually got to fish Friday afternoon and caught one nice Brookie, but the best part was watching a guide just a short way upstream from me land a LARGE Rainbow. At first we thought it was a Cuthrought, but the coloring was a little off. Monday I got to fish the lake at Maroon Bells. Very picturesque and got a little Rainbow before the wind and rain and snow chased me off. Tuesday I got all the way up to the Rudei Reservoir before realizing that I left my vest home that contained all my midges and tiny nymphs as well as my license. Had to drive all the way back to Aspen which is about 25 miles. Half way down the river I stopped at Frying Pan Anglers fly shop and he actually gave me a duplicate license and sold me some midges. That saved me about an hour. Got back up to the river and saw two guys land some nice fish. About a 20" brown and a24" rainbow. Rigged up and got in the water and fished hard for about 2 hours before the wind and cold feet got the best of me. FRYING PAN -1- ALAN-0- Awesome trip even though the catching was not so good. The views are spectacular and awe inspiring. Going to Aspen has never disappointed. I am truly blessed to be able to experience all of God's wonders.

Re: [VFB] Aspen
Yes it really was a beautiful spot. Most of the mountains were snow covered. On the way up to the bridge that crosses where the streams come in, the lake was pretty low. There were several remains of avalanches.And all at once the ceiling fell and in came the snow and rain.. Got so bad I couldn't even side arm cast so I had to leave.

Re: [VFB] Aspen
http://www.parhamphotography.com/Landscapes/Colorado-Visions/Maroon-Bells-Region-Aspen/i-qmGh9Gf/1/XL/MB-0509-XL.jpg The lake below the Maroon Bells near Aspen, Colorado is a beautiful setting to go fishing. I used to camp up on the face of the Maroon Bells at upper left of that picture. Denver is my home town, so the Aspen area wasn't that far to drive. These days, however, there is even a shuttle that takes people on the road up to the lake area. Kind of ruins the experience compared to the old days.

Re: [VFB] Aspen fishing
Hi Alan, When we have fished the Fryingpan River in that location, the hot patterns were Mysis Shrimp imitations below an indicator. Love that fishery, and if you were there in July, the Green Drake hatch was phenomenal. Wes Wada Bend, Oregon On Sun, May 15, 2016 at 1:39 PM, Phxflytyerwrote: > Yeah!
