Fly Fishing Colorado and the Driftless Area
When I think about trout fishing in Minnesota the one time of year that I don't look forward to is October 15 - December 31st.

After a much needed oil change I hit the road and began the haul up into the mountains … Continue reading Cold Temps, Hot Fishing | 12/5/2018
