I decided that this week I would clean off my fly tying bench, go through my fly tying material and eliminate what I would not be using in the next five or ten years.
I found some items that have been missing for a couple of years including my favorite feather pliers and a couple of thread holding bobbins that I thought I had misplaced or given to away. When I closed the Fishaus I gave away flies, fly tying material and a couple of really great fly rods.
Fortunately my sons took the bulk of these things and I held on to too much stuff that has just been sitting around for the past 8 years. I boxed up the fly tying materials, hooks, and thread and decided that I would donate these to a great organization in Cheyenne, Wyoming that teaches Veteran’s to tie flies and build fly rods. I still have a lot of stuff left so if you have a suggestion where to have it go let me know.
According to DNRC and the dam tender, Painted Rocks water delivered to FWP and PRWUA will end about September 20th. Starting last Thursday, September 10th, the water will decrease about 50 cfs every 5 days until the water outflow from the dam will be about 60 cfs for a few days during the last week of the month. There will be some scheduled work below the dam and when that is accomplished the outflow will be adjusted to equal in the inflows.
We will then be in the winter mode for water flows. Some adjustments may be made in the future but they should be quite small and will not be noticed downstream from the West Fork.
