 Rainbow Falls Mountain Trout, what an incredible fishery.  The lakes have cooled and the stream has almost perfect flow for the large rainbows and Cutts that lurk there. Our guest was from Lubbock TX and is an outfitter providing hunting and bass fishing services.  He is a very good fly fisher as well. 

 We arrived at about 7:30AM and headed for the stream.   Since it was early and the sun had not hit the water, a Cone Head Olive Bugger size 6 was dynamite!  Later in the day, the ubiquitous Red San Juan Worm and Cream Midge were the ticket.  Wouldn’t you know the last fish of the day would make his trip.  The 24” brown in the picture took a Red San Juan Worm not a foot from the edge in the small pond.  After 1 ½ trips around the pond and a lot of patience, he came to net.  Why so long you ask, T.J. was using his 2wt Loomis!

 The fall fishing at Rainbow Falls will only get better!  Book your trip now, and be prepared for a trip of a lifetime!
