We started out early in the morning, fishing right past the bridge below the dam. I was drifting mysis down into some boulders, when I caught my first blue river trout, a nice 14-inch brown. A couple of casts later I pulled a smaller brown from the same spot. Rob was fishing dries to rising fish, but with no luck. We moved downstream and I picked up another small brown with a Deerfield special right at the head of a rapids. The fishing slowed and we decided to move up into Breckenridge and fish just off the road. This part of the stream is dammed up and has pools filled with brookies. The brook trout were eager to pick off our dry flies and an occasional rainbow was also caught. I finished the day with a nice 16-inch brown, just a cutthroat away from a Colorado “Grand Slam.” We decided to try fishing above Dillon in a place that Rob had had previous success. The water was relatively shallow, with most of it moving fairly fast. My deerfield special managed to entice 2 small browns to rise and take the dry fly, but no real big fish. The best dry flies were the Deerfield Special, the Peacock, and Griffith’s Gnat. Rob had most of his success with an Adams. Mysis worked the best near the dam fished under an indicator.
