Fly Fishing Clinic - NorthFork Ranch, Shawnee, CO





Northfork Fishing and Dude Ranch!!










Wow, what a great place to go fishing. Friday I in the snow to The Northfork Ranch near Shawnee, CO. Karen and Dean, the owners, checked me into a cozy cabin before a wonderful dinner was served at 6pm. During dinner I met with the 15 other women that signed up for the beginners clinic held by the Colorado Women Flyfishers Assoc.





Here are a few pictures of the cabin I stayed in - it was fun. Several of the ladies came over after dinner for drinks and to enjoy the beautiful fireplace! The kingsize bed was a great nights sleep, I only wished that Henry had been able to come with me.



Following breakfast, the clinic highlighted chosing the right fly, tying knots, casting and fishing! Here is a couple of pictures of the instructors: Marion
Phyllis Kim

And finally, here is the group of us that attended the clinic. By the way, I didn't catch a fish but I learned a lot and especially learned that I have a lot to learn about fly fishing!!
