This was intended to be a repeat of our 2017 trip where my buddy, Tom, joined me on a fly fishing trip in Colorado where my folks live (Loveland) as well as my son (Golden). Alas, Tom's recovering from his cancer treatment so he lived the trip vicariously through daily texts...
We fished Rocky Mountain National Park. Everyone caught at least one pretty Brown Trout. Bonus was our guide giving us some entomology lessons. He majored in biology in college.
Camped near Bellaire Lake in the Red Feather Lakes area where I caught my first fish on a bamboo rod I made with Oyster Bamboo Rods in 2016 with my father.
Played around on the Poudre River, my old college stomping ground.
Tried out the Laramie River and got slammed by mosquitos.
Here's my dad coming back to the Jeep...
