The Dream Stream

This video was shot over the period of two fishing trips in February. I held on to the video for a little while, but now here it is.



All the footage/photos were shot with my digital camera.

The resolution of this video embedded from youtube is pretty nice. I have gone back and swapped the videos on the small creek post a few entries back from the blogger host to the youtube host. If you want to go back and watch them again, the quality is much better now.

I shot this photo through the car windshield near Glenwood Canyon on the way to the Roaring Fork a few weeks ago. Vaughn asked me what I was taking a photo of...

A Perfect Day of Sun and Snow

Jason, Nick and I fished a creek over the weekend. The weather turned as we had hoped and the fishing turned fantastic. We were getting into fish so consistently that I was confident enough to have Nick film me set the hook on one. Here is an unedited taste:



You must go to my Brother's Flickr account and view the album of the day. Click the "slideshow" button in the top right of the album window.

Go now.

I'll wait.

I couldn't attempt to describe that trip any better than how Nick shot it.

Nick shot all the photos and video. Nick usually catches a few fish, gets satisfied, and then ends up wielding the camera more than the fly rod. He's a fly fisherman's best friend. He put editing time into every photo in the album. The photos are all available for full quality download on Flickr.

This next video displays the remarkable ability of the polarizer to cut through glare on the water. In the right conditions the polarized lens is the single most important tool the angler has.

Nick spins the lens a few seconds into the video. Keep an eye on the water.

I wish we took some video of Jason cleaning out a hole of 14.5 inch, wild rainbows. Then again... maybe better to keep that little spot anonymous. ;)

My Status

The Bad:

My Macbook Pro has gradually been acting funny and giving me the spinning wheel of death. I backed up all my files and tried to reformat the hard drive, but the OS would not install. Turns out that the hard drive is shot. I've been bumming the internet from my brother and, needless to say, I have not had time to blog.

The Good:

I've been snowboarding and fly fishing tailwaters pretty much every weekend. I've got good photos and stories ready to go once I get my computer back from the Doctor. I'll be writing a feature for ColoradoFlyFisherman.com soon which I'm excited about. Good things coming, stay tuned!
