UPPER POUDRE

Due to the runoff from the wildfires the Poudre river looks like dark coffee up until a few miles past the narrows then it becomes crystal clear like it should be this time of year. It takes about an hour to get to the clean water from Fort Collins, but the fishing is really good up there right now. My brother and I made the trip yesterday and had a a lot of fun. The trout were eating everything caddis, drakes, terrestrials and nymphs.

Jake started things off with a nice rainbow

Then we saw a moose

I even caught some fish.
