I don't think I'm hotspotting anything that is closed after 12pm - but I camped overnight and fished the Colorado River at Pumphouse today. No one else was respecting the Voluntary Closure of the Colorado as the first 9 rafts off were guides after 9am - no way they were making it to Radium in three hours (or maybe they were).
Very tough fishing - nothing until 8:30am and it was a dink. At around 9 I had to return to the truck and tear off my waders and wet waded the rest of the day (until noon).
I did manage one nive rainbow about 15 inches and a nice brown at about 15 inches, both on ....a small orange egg. That was my last resort - they were not hitting anything else.
I'm glad I got out - even if the fishing was slow. Off to Granby and Grand Lake for vacation with the family.
