Hey well we cam out one day early and decided to get some fly fishing in. We have been going to the mountains for years and have never been out there without fly fishing. Well we stopped at a fly shop and wanted to get into some browns, but the guys said something about salmon and we just blew him off.

we bought some of the hot nymphs and headed out, we had plenty of drys. But anyhow we passed this huge lake. I cant think of the name right now but its by durango but anyhow we get about 25 miles from it and threm on the daypacks and headed for the stream we didnt bring waders but it was an awesome day out. So we find this stream and find some holes And I can see fish everywhere!! I was like those are salmon!! Turns out these salmon make the run every year and they made it this far. So we spent half the day catching them. We got a few smaller rainbows and they were nothing special and a few little brookies. But I caught a decent little brown and these salmon. I have never seen anything like it. It was one of the most fun flyfishing days I have had out there. here sre some pictures
