Arkansas River Combat Fishing

Reported by a member of a fly fishing forum in which I hang out.  Sat 2/09, he had gone to the Arkansas River in Pueblo, CO for some fly fishing.  Turns out there were so many bait fishers out that it was almost shoulder to shoulder combat fishing.  Most of the bait fishers had strings of 2-3 fish.  But our intrepid fly fisher persevered and out fished the bait fishers by about 4 or 5 to 1.  This is as it should be with a good fly fisherman.  We can almost always outfish the bait slingers.  Then he made the observation that we (fly fishermen) would do better with some bad weather so as not to compete with the bait fishermen.  Bad Weather was abundant around Pueblo this last week so our guy got his wish.
