Eleven Mile Canyon

July 26, 2010 Another of the can't miss destinations in South Park. The scenery, wildlife, and fishing draw us back year-after-year. This time was particularly good for fishing. Ben and I hooked many quality fish - not all were landed because these are spunky wild fish that rocket across the stream when they feel the hook. The best fish, a 16" wild brown trout, got away before we got the picture - I had been working to remove two other flies that remained from a previous break-off, and was too concerned with getting the fish back in the water so did not have him secured long enough for the photo. Charlcie and Myka were very patient to stay on the bank and read while Ben and I were involved with the fishing. So tomorrow is shopping day.
