Animas Lunch Report – 1/18/15 – Hawaiian Shaved Ice
The Animas has been flowing the consistency of Hawaiian shaved ice lately. Expect that to change though. With snow on the forecast this week, temps have been rising above freezing and the slush on the Animas may break up a bit. There will even be enough open water to get some nymphs to the depths.
Get lots of weight on there though, you are going to need to bust through the slush and hit these trout in the face. It is cold and they won’t be moving much.
Here are a few shots of fishing with Duranglers guide Corky to give you a feel of just how frigid it has been lately. We are talking “rig up in the car, don’t break off or drop a glove” type cold. With this cold, fishing has been tough…but everything can change with a few degrees on the thermometer this week…
