This is the last of 3 summer / fall Fish 'n Hike events hosted by Boulder Flycasters Chapter of Trout Unlimited.  This is NOT a guided fishing trip!  This is often called a "fish-along" trip.  There will be a limit of 12 available slots for each trip.  You must be ticketed (free) as described in this post.  You do not need to be a Trout Unlimited member to join us.

We will hike to Mitchell Lake and / or Blue Lake, fish for the day, and have a tail-gate at the end of the day.  Both are within the Brainard Lake Recreation Area.  We will organize the outing, but you are responsible for all hiking and fishing gear, fishing licenses, clothing, food, water, etc.  Be prepared for a moderately difficult hike. Mitchell Lake is a 4-mile and Blue Lake a 6-mile round trip hike.  All levels of fly-fishing anglers (except "never-evers") are welcome.  You should be somewhat experienced with fly-fishing techniques and been on the water fly-fishing in the past.

We will meet at 7:30 am at the Brainard Lake Winter Lot, and then drive the permitted cars to the reserved parking lots past the entry gate.  Please register for the hike by registering on this site for a free ticket, so we know how many people to expect and your names.
