Mark and Derron thought it would be fun to see if they could catch more fish (in inches) than Paul and myself. We had decided to go to Boulder Creek for the day and started out at Rodgers Park. Derron and Mark went to a class at Colorado Skies on how to fish Boulder Creek and picked up some flies they recommended earlier in the morning that they gave to Paul and me. Losers owed beers!
Mark was the first to land a fish, and they were in the lead. Of coarse he caught it on a Black Beauty, not one of the flies they gave us! We fish for a couple of hours with Mark landing two total and no one else having any luck and decide to move into town.
We try a spot behind the stadium and just like before Mark lands a fish, but this time on a Red San Juan Worm. Yep, you guessed it, not a fly they gave us (cheeky bastards)! We fish for a few hours with everyone but me catching a fish on a Red San Juan and call it a day and go have some dinner.
Mark and Derron finished with five and two fish apiece with Paul catching one and getting skunked myself on dries. Had a great day fishing with friends and finding new places to go!
