Fly Fishing --飛蠅釣(2019.07.12)
Fly fishing, Idaho Springs Reservoir
小孫子貝貝從小常跟他爸爸去釣魚,對釣魚有點興趣,丹佛一位朋友對釣魚已是專業級高手,得知貝貝對釣魚有興趣,特地邀我帶貝貝跟他去體驗一下所謂的Fly fishing,我們要去的地點是位在Mount Evans Wilderness區內的Idaho Springs Reservoir,該水庫正位在Mount Evans 山下Summit Lake下方的Chicago Creek山谷中,多年前曾沿該河谷上行暢遊三大湖,7月12日上午我們約在九點鐘抵達Echo Lake停車場;

將車停好後從停車場登山口出發,海拔10,600 呎(3,231公尺),行小段路到Echo Lake西岸,沿西岸南行。

該水庫圍籬上告示牌特別提醒” catch & release only”,意即釣客將魚釣上後隨即放生,不可帶回家食用,所以釣客主要享受垂釣的樂趣!

此水庫鱒魚魚隻雖不大但數量卻不少,貝貝大大小小釣了十幾條,頗有成就感,雖然一條魚也沒能帶回家,但貝貝說從John處學了不少Fly Fishing的知識和技巧,可謂收穫良多!
