Was able to partake of some easy fishing for bows at a private golf course yesterday evening. Caught 3 trout on the first 4 casts with a peacock herl BH nymph. A BH hares ear did well also.







This guy was leaving the tee box after hitting a nice draw down the left side of the fairway.

Nice, all around.

They're still shedding? A little hot down there, isn't it?

Rob,
This course is one of the top 100 private courses. Perfect would be having a 4 weight in the bag and having to let a few groups play through as you "retrieve a ball?" from a water hazard.

I get to sample the waters again next Tuesday (insert big smile). The fly swap flies will be given a test whirl.

If I was hitting a ball on that course, the most dangerous place to be standing would be anywhere near the water.... \:\)

That could almost be Estes Park. The Big Thompson runs through the course and elk are a regular hazard. That's a nice looking fish.

Last evening we hit another pond which contains largemouth bass and trout. An olive simi seal leech caught a few small 6" bass and had a lot of short nibbles, so I went to a GH hares ear. Caught a couple 12" rainbows and more small bass. The fighting frenzy of one small bass attracted a larger 3# bucketmouth, which tried to swallow the smaller, hooked bass. Had a nice tug on the 5 weight as long as the larger bass held the baitfish I caught in its mouth.
