The NOCO Nympher: May 2013
http://www.noconympher.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Saturday, May 25, 2013. Tight Lines to Our Veterans. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends." John 15:12-14. A nation that owes a great debt to the fallen that can never be repaid. It is difficult to talk about those that have given so much, without remmbering those that are serving our Nation today! Not to diminish the respect and reverence of those that have fallen protecting our nation, I have to recognize those here and now.

The NOCO Nympher: April 2014
http://www.noconympher.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Monday, April 21, 2014. The morning started with a fleece jacket, beanie and entertaining having gloves with me yet equipment needs quickly changed to a baseball hat; stashing the fleece and definitely not needing gloves as the temperatures climbed into the high 60's in the Poudre Canyon. The 46 degree water was moving a little faster than last week at approximately 200cfs; yet still remained clear. Jim on The Poudre. I geared up with my 11 foot Tenkara Iwana rod...

The NOCO Nympher: Simms Wading Staff
http://www.noconympher.com/2013/10/simms-wading-staff.html
Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Thursday, October 24, 2013. I had the misfortune of watching my wading staff float down the Taylor River because I carried it untethered and needless to say it did not stay put. Fortunately, I was fishing with my gear expert, Mike over at Big Dry Fly, who let me field test a Simms folding wading staff that he had brought along on the trip. After using his, Santa was nice enough to bring me one for Christmas last year. The staff itself was amazing! After getting h...

Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Friday, June 21, 2013. Chas'in Tail.Smallie Style 6/14/13. JT and I were back on the tooth, Horsetooth Reservoir that is, while the rivers were running high…We at least that is the excuse we use so we don’t feel too bad chasing smallmouth bass when trout are calling us! We loaded up at 5:45am and were on the lake by 6:30. What a gorgeous morning! We stayed parallel to shore and casted to shore, and let the fly drop. Any movement in the sighter or a stop and w...

The NOCO Nympher: August 2013
http://www.noconympher.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Friday, August 23, 2013. Tenkara on the Gore Creek in Vail, Colorado. I had the opportunity to spend some time on the Gore Creek in Vail, Colorado. Amazing backdrop to spend some time on the water. The Gore Creek runs the length of the town of Vail and is nestled at the foot of the Gore Mountain Range. The Gore Creek is a free stone stream that resembles the visions of those writing about fly fishing on a rocky mountain stream. I used a 9' tapered fluorocarbon le...

http://www.noconympher.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Pre-storm Trout Chasin…. Turn on any television station, listen to any radio station or read any electronic media and the Colorado region was inundated with snow forecasts and predictions from four different weather models and a few turned over weather rocks that we were in for a snow storm that was names the Siberian Express. Washed it down with a large coffee and headed north to a small tributary of the Poudre River. The water I wa...

http://www.noconympher.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Thursday, October 31, 2013. Almont Part 3. The Gunnison River. Day three found us waking at 6:00 am to the sounds and smells of Bryan preparing breakfast burritos. We are talking made to order, fresh out of the pan tortillas filled with all the fix’ins and smothered in salsa. A single burrito was the size of a large plate and one was plenty to keep the edge off for most of the day! We left the cabin and drove southwest through Gunnison on US 50. Standing on the b...

http://www.noconympher.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Dedicated to the Spirit of Nymph Fishing. Wednesday, November 27, 2013. To You and Your Families. I hope it is a time of reflection and remembering those that have touched your lives. I hope it is a time that reminds you off all that you are thankful for; the things you may have. Overlooked and neglected; and a time to share your thoughts and feelings of thanks with those that need to hear it! Thank you to all that take the time to visit and leave a comment or two! Links to this post. We took CO 135 from...
