Don O,
Not sure exactly where you will be but have a suggestion. If you find
Canon City on the map, just west of pueblo, then look just west of it on
highway 50 for highway 9 going north. Where 9 intersects 24 is the little
village of Hartselle. At that intersection 9 cross the north fork of the
south Platt river, That is the water that I learned to fly fish on when I
was a kid. Good browns and a rainbows there. Someday I hope to hit it again.
Would like to hear your take on it if you get time. I know it is a bit east
of where you will be, but think it would be worth the drive.

Just got back from Naturita, Colorado. It's right in the middle of spring
run-off time there, so the streams there were really muddy. I was more a
'greenie' than the Coloradans and tried to go over Colo hwy 90 to Naturita.
HA! I would have needed a snowmobile. So I turned around (almost getting
stuck) and went through Montrose and Ridgeway, then west to Naturita. It was
the long way around, but I didn't want to back-track all the way to Grand
Junction.
Good part is I stopped in the flyshop in Ridgeway on the way home and made
friends with one of the owners there, but the shop in Montrose (Cimmaron, I
think) was closed up early yesterday and I didn't get to meet those guys.
So I drove on up to Grand Junction and spent the night with a friend there-
doing rope-dub lessions until the late hours.
This project is south of Naturita towards Dove Creek, so this summer I'll
have a chance to wet a line in all those waters in the central to SW corner
of Colorado. So I'll probably buy a yearly out-of-state license.
Who knows the best spots to fish there? Anybody on the list from that area
or has fished it a lot? The Delores is small, but looks fishable. I bet
it's all little-bitty fish 20" and smaller there, but that will beat
nuthin'.
