Notes

First trip in my raft....mostly just learning to row. Matt and Jamie couldn't catch fish (1 fish between the two of them). I fished some and caught 3 small rainbows on Troy's Trout Egg and had another break off. After the float a fished a run below the takeout (cherry creek) and caught a nice brown on a dead drifted crayfish.

Rig: standard nymph rig with a crayfish in front and an egg trailing. (no weight, the crayfish was heavy enough).
