Last week I trekked a few miles up Cottonwood Pass west of Buena Vista and stalked brookies and cutties for a couple days. My last day I went solo and spent most my time sifting through game trails and up some side channels to chase some of the bigger spookier guys in the pass. Here's a couple Youtube videos...one setting up my approach and the other with my catch.

That is some real bushwhacking! That type of fishing is not for me. It's way too frustrating with losing flies and getting the tip of my rod stuck in bushes. Or a missed hook set slinging my fly and leader up and into a bush and I lose the entire end of my setup.
