I didn't draw a doe tag on the mesa because according to the lady at the Division of Pukes and WTF, They had to significantly lower the deer tags for the mesa due to a Shortage of deer population. WHAT THE ****?? Shortage of does on the mesa? Where? **** I hate Colorado's DOW or whatever the hell they call themselves now.

I know of 5 people who didn't draw their tags.

If I were to be forced today to only fish one Colorado river for the rest of my life, I'd have to say it would be the Animas. There are hundreds that I haven't fished so this is by no means an educated decision but the 10 miles of public access, huge browns and rainbows and cuts, and the uncrowded nature of it make it an ideal place to fish (and to me fishing with a crowd isn't fishing, it's socialilzing)

What is YOUR favorite river?

(by the way, I've excluded several smaller creeks and streams that I LOVE but would never mention by name online :) ]]> All about the Fish aftergrass http://www.westernslopeanglers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12943 http://www.westernslopeanglers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12942&goto=newpost Wed, 16 May 2012 02:34:49 GMT What are you guy's favorite drop shot bait?

I was about to drive halfway across the state for one when I found one right next door but it is a 10hp and older so it is pretty damn heavy. It's gotta weigh close to 50 pounds. Looking at my transom you can see that I need a new one. My plan was to cut a 2x6 to the same shape and coat with fiberglass. The C-channel on top is very flimsy aluminum I was thinking of using steel C-channel and painting it. Question: would any of you put a heavy old 10hp motor on a boat like this?

I saw a pike that made me not wanna let my dog swim in the lake. She was just cruising the shoreline really slow. I drug a little shadrap right past her nose without her seeming to mind or want to eat it. I should have tried something that looked like a duck. The Irrigation District who runs that lake is pretty shady, I'd say that even though the fishing is great, if you're coming down this way you'd be better off fishing Navajo, where you can beach your boat where you like, camp in tons of places, and essentially enjoy yourself without some goonish bureaucracy breathing down your neck.
