Killing the Dirty Water Blues | Jim McLennan When spring runoff turns clear rivers into unfishable torrents, there’s still a path forward. Dirty Water Blues guides anglers toward spring creeks and tailwaters, where steady flows, rich hatches, and technical dry-fly fishing offer both challenge and reward. It’s a sharp reminder that the toughest conditions at home can become the perfect excuse to rediscover what makes the pursuit so compelling. Borrowed Light | Blake Clarkson There is a quiet shift that happens over the course of a day. Effort gives way to perspective. The focus moves from outcome to presence. Standing in moving water reveals scale in a way few places can. Control fades. Respect settles in. By the time the light leaves the valley, what remains is not what was caught, but how the river was met. Superhero | Allen Crater A son reflects on the quiet weight of growing up, raising his own children, and finally understanding the man who shaped him. Through memories of work, water, woods, and everyday moments that once seemed ordinary, a deeper truth emerges about sacrifice, resilience, and the enduring bond between father and son. What remains is a portrait of admiration that has evolved with time, grounded not in perfection, but in presence. Lessons from the Roaring Fork | Will Rice A hard lesson at the river’s edge opens the door to a deeper understanding of one of Colorado’s most storied trout waters. Moving through pocket water, canyon walls, and wide downstream runs, the experience blends technical skill with raw immersion in a river that demands attention and humility. Expectations shift, instincts sharpen, and the reward becomes something more lasting than a fish in hand. And much more!
