Boulder to Delaney Buttes
Marianne exercised in the morning, while Richard sprayed a couple of his sculptures, and got ready fro the trip. For this trip, we are bringing the RV and the boat, a 62 feet long rig. We left Boulder midday to drive over to Delaney Buttes lakes, near Walden. The drive over was uneventful, over Berthoud Pass through Winter Park and Granby. The beetle kill is amazingly large, in some places dead trees as far as the eye can see.
The fly shop in Walden said that we need to go deep at the lake, maybe 10 to 12 feet down, with a scud or a pheasant tail. For the rivers, try a hopper and a dropper. We set up at South Delaney Buttes lake. Richard was a little under the weather, so too tired to fish in the evening. He hopes to feel better tomorrow and get in some serious fishing.
