Day 81
South Boulder Creek again today except this time I tried the section that runs through Eldorado Canyon State Park and I brought Derron with me. It was a little windy but sunny and warm with the flows being pretty low. We started fishing just below the bridge and worked our way up. Derron caught one after about a half hour of fishing and had a couple more bites. Meanwhile I had one fish come up and sniff my fly but no takers. We move upstream over the next couple hours with neither of us landing a fish, so we decide to move downstream outside the park.
We find a nice flat section of creek and start fishing. Derron lands another brookie while I am having zero luck and no bites. We continue to fish and Derron pulls in his third brookie for the day as I continued my bad luck and got snagged on a branch and when I pulled back I snapped the rod in half. That being said we call it a day and head home skunked for the second straight time on South Boulder.
Rod: 12' Iwana
Line: 3rd gen Traditional Tenkara 10 1/2'
Fly that worked: Grasshopper(realistic olive body)
