Fly Fishing the Gunnison River In March

Well, last Thursday I fished the Gunnison River at the Gunnison Forks Area. I fished with my friend Lori Nicholson from Angler's All fly shop in Denver (I will be teaching three kid's fly fishing classes at their shop this summer. It was nice day and we had sunshine, clouds and wind off and on during the day.

There was a good midge hatch all day but only saw a couple of fish rising. I hooked most my fish on small #18-#22 black midges and Brassie patterns. Here are a few pictures from our day. I hope you enjoy them.
