Well I have been waiting for someone to post something on the Colorado Cane Conclave this last weekend but it seems that my patience has gotten the best of me
one more time. After some of my friends proding me and even just stopping short of threatening me I decided I had better go. My friend Frank Drummond told me
that I had to show up so that people would stop the rumor that I had died or was just a make beleive character! So I went and WOW what a great time, got to see
some old friends and make some new ones and I managed not to get into any trouble!

Hey Joe... What a great time for all once again, Gary knows how to pick'em & throw'em... Pink took some many photos she probably still editing them... I barley got out of the house with my rod much less my camera, so no photos but great memories... Did you make it to Dairy Queen and get your nap in time...?
Take Care, Dave

The next thing I'm going to work on with Joe is to get him to fish when it's below 60 degrees outside.

Cold fishing! | #3 | ||

It's kinda like fishing with nymphs and strike indicators..............been there, done that, bought the T shirt! And like one of our presidents used to
say "Not gonna do it..........it wouldn't be prudent at this jucture"

I too have to say it was a great time!!! If you missed it this year, plan to make it next year. I've been trying to get to this event for 2 years
and it was well worth the 1800 miles or so I put on my "Bamboo Buggy" to get there. I really can't say enough. Great food ,outstanding weather,
wonderful friends, old and new and the rods..............chance of a lifetime for me to cast rods I've only dreamed of. My thanks to Dave Lyons for letting
me cast his wonderful Driggs and Martha Marie and his patience with my awkwardness and to AK Best for the same, I learned more about casting in 30 minutes then
I have in 20 years and his Heddon is truly one of a kind. My hats off to Gary Carbough for undertaking such an event and to all that helped him pull it off.

Wow! Thanks to Kathy, Scott and Joe for all the great pictures. I had a great time and from the feedback I have received everyone else enjoyed themselves.
The weather gods smiled on us and we raised about $700 for Reel Recovery at the auction. Many thanks to all of you who donated items for the auction and
helped with the set up, etc. If anyone has suggestions on how we can improve the Conclave please email or call me.
I also heard the fishing on Sunday was fabulous. Gary. |
