Beautiful. Nicely done guys.

Crazy how much water was on that road!

Awesome footage brother! Did you get to camp up there or out and back?

[@CombatFlyFishing]

Out and back. We'd never been in that area before and you need a permit to camp in the Indian Peaks Wilderness. We got a super early start. It took about 2.5 hours to reach the lake and during the last mile hiking back out we had to put on the headlamps, but it was definitely worth it!

Cool video. Wondering how much of that there gold ya took home that was sparkling at the beginning of the vid?🙃
Btw, you took the long way. Way quicker out of Corona.👍

I fish that area quite often, but I don't go as high as you two did because I aint that young anymore, damn it. You should go back and fish Jaspers Creek and the beaver ponds.

Any reason why you hiked in from Hessie instead of driving to the west side, outside of just the extra drive time?

I often wonder if the "greenbacks " that are stocked are even pure or if they have been hybridized and just called greenbacks to get people to come on over and fish to make more money from inexperienced gullible anglers.
