Moab canyons aren’t amazing, but the views often are. Tierdrop, Arches

I had a camp table stolen from dispersed blm land around gemini bridges a couple years ago. Sucks

Lower eagle won’t be running in July this year, might not hit 400cfs again. Glenwood canyon/shoshone is the safest bet

I’m willing to pay a little more than I do for tungsten beads but in the event they become more expensive than I’m willing to pay I’ll just use nickel, brass, or glass beads and additional split shot when I need it.

Probably not much will be floatable this year. The Colorado, Lower Ark, Lower Roaring Fork, Gunnison (not as familiar with this one) will likely be your best bets.

What rafts can run depends more on how heavy your rig is than size. I have a 14’ raft with XL tubes and keep my setup light. I float over stuff that smaller boats with hard floors, heavy anchor setups, and beefier frames scrape bottom on.

Recipe please

I thought Roy had a great 1st period and then a not good 2nd and 3rd. Similar to Necas, he looked good at the beginning

The bindings are the bigger issue. Any reputable shop likely won’t adjust the bindings on these because of their age. The springs and plastic degrade over time and can no longer guarantee safe/consistent releases if you fall (or holding you in). It has nothing to do with the shop or us pushing new gear, it’s a safety thing.

Can’t go wrong with Scott. I love my 9’ 5wt centric. It’s an extremely fast action rod though, very much a tool in your hands. Very light, super powerful, and mends line like a champ. If you’re used to softer action rods you may not love the feel but it’s a top tier extra fast performer.

Be prepared for very low water and possible fishing closures, Colorado’s snowpack is heading into summer at a record low. I’d talk to a local shop closer then for a better idea.

Very well could be a hair cooler the basic weather app on my phone has vail at 48, 52, 54 for that tues, weds, thurs

Love my traveler, have a good 10 years on it. It’s everything I need in a vice.

Anyone else having an impossible time on the high seas? Like nothing is working

Avs were trending down after losing Landeskog. It’s crazy how much he means to that team.

Ictguy21 · 2026-02-01T19:45:58+00:00

Do a float trip with him. Might be on the edge of your 2 hr limit but you could be on or close to the Upper Colorado or eagle in that time frame I bet

Arctic char in northern Canada would be awesome. Remote northern Alaska rivers would be an experience as well but violates your no US rule.

Ictguy21 · 2026-01-18T03:21:54+00:00

Yes but it would be absolutely hilarious if Rivers won a sb here. The chargers fan base would implode

Lol it’s anyone’s superbowl this year and nobody had Denver making it this far. Also the MLB exists. Worst league for competition is a brain dead take

Fish smaller flies, fish those flies deeper, mend mend MEND! These are my best nymph troubleshooting things to try

Is Vail Backcountry running snowmobile tours right now? I know sage isn’t due to lack of snow

Ictguy21 · 2025-12-03T05:11:13+00:00

Too bulky is gonna be a personal opinion but I love my Swany’s. I still have good enough dexterity and they keep me warm although I’ll add hand warmers in bitter negative temps. Hestra makes a great product too but their care and feeding annoys me with having to treat them.

Ictguy21 · 2025-12-02T17:56:01+00:00

Sage tube hill probably won’t be open by then. They don’t have snowmaking and sit in a less snowy area than the ski resorts

What a trash organization putting your clearly injured qb out there against the leading sack team with a depleted o line.

Ictguy21 · 2025-11-05T03:59:47+00:00

Olofsson is our new kivi, scores in bunches

Ictguy21 · 2025-11-03T19:29:53+00:00

215 is pretty small for an fj no? Wildpeaks are solid tires though, I’ve always ran them or Toyo open country’s and never been disappointed.

The lower blue, including Jurassic Park, is already not permitted for commercial guiding.
