The trip required a 2 1/2 hour horse back ride followed by a 45 minute hike up to a mountain top lake <br />( Spruce Lake ) for the purpose of catching the elusive Green Back Cut Throat. Once we arrived at the lake we donned our fly fishing attire and waded into the pristine gin clear waters. In a matter of approx 3 hours of fishing we caught about 20 of these beautiful fish. I was told by our guide that the GBC's are making a remarkable come back but are definitely still far off of the numbers that once existed in the Rocky Mountain Region. It was close to a religious experience. <br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081837382727639109[email protected]
