Red Canyon Lodge ~ Fly Fishing

Nick and Julianne rarely get the same day off- so yesterday afternoon they met up after work to fish Red Canyon‘s private lake- East Green Lake. There are several huge Rainbows and Tigers right off the dock. Here’s a look at some of the fish they landed- both on a zebra midge. (These fish are still eating Cicada dry flies!)

Patagonia Fly Fishing- Circa 2012

Lago Pollux is near the town of Coyhaique in the Patagonia region of Chile. The waters are full of huge rainbow trout that are somewhat easy to catch- the minimal fishing pressure in the secluded mountain and farmlands allows for more curious fish eager to eat. Nick Jackson was fortunate to have guided on the rivers and lakes in the area for four seasons (2010-2013).  He filmed this video on a GoPro 3 while floating tubing off the banks of Campo Chileno in 2012.

Trout Fishing Downtown Salt Lake City, UT

Julianne spends her weekends working in Trout Creek Flyfisher in Dutch John, UT, but during the week she’s selling jewelry at this Kay’s City Creek location– apparently flyfishing follows her even into downtown Salt Lake City– she considers it the best of both worlds! The outdoor mall’s streams and pools are stocked full of trout.  (post via Vimeo from High-Spirited Adventures)
