“Suggested packing list for a trip to a Colorado trout river over the next few weeks: stout rod, flies or lures, wading boots, both warm- and cold- weather gear, up-link to The Weather Channel, Ouija board and prayer beads.” Charlie Meyers sums up pre-runoff fishing — which sometimes become mid-runoff fishing — in Colorado in March in the Denver Post.
Meanwhile Ed Dentry notes that while anglers are sometimes fooled, the fish know what time of year it is. “”People come in here thinking it’s summer, but it’s not summer to the fish,” said Mitch Vogt of Cutthroat Anglers, hard by the Blue River in Silverthorne.” In the Denver Post.
