Hi, I'm Terra! It's Pride Month and one of the ways you can be a good ally is by giving me your money. I do half and full day guided trips that can encompass anything from beginner to advanced instruction, 1:1 or large party trips, rivers or stillwater, public or private. I am also able to incorporate euro nymphing into my guiding this year. I guide all over the Front Range and South Park.

I tie custom boxes and flies, whether you have something specific in mind or just want some patterns that work. Get them from someone who knows what's working on the waters you're heading to. If you're really allergic to money, I offer 1:1 fly tying instruction. Achoo!

I have a fly box for sale. This one contains a mix of classic patterns and new patterns that all catch fish. This is essentially what I'm starting off my guiding season with. Would make a great box to start out with. Contains six each of:

- chartreuse mop fly (uv)
- cranefly mop fly
- San Juan worm
- eggstacy egg (uv)
- orange crackle bead Mayer's mini leech (uv)
- olive Mayer's mini leech
- Copper John
- Prince nymph (uv)
- guide's choice hare's ear
- blue poison tung
- orange butt zebra midge (uv)

All barbless (copper john has pinched barb). Box has some minor scratches on front so has been partially discounted. $185 +shipping

In this video, I introduce myself and tie a leech I really like for a couple friends who asked for it. I recently injured my foot and have a lot of time on my hands. Feel free to ask questions about tying or fishing, and if it warrants a video, I can add it to the list. Gives me something to do.

Did you know that Colorado has some of the most invasive aquatic species in the country? The movement of live baitfish across state lines has been proven to be a vector for multiple types of pathogens that cause devastating disease, including but not limited to mouth hemorrhaging and whirling disease, which is already a major concern for the decline of trout populations in Colorado. The Western slope recognizes this threat, but the Eastern slope does not.

CPW had promised to re-examine this issue, but has since reneged on their decision. Please help me get our proposal heard at the upcoming commissioner's meeting by submitting written comment to CPW. To simplify the process, there is already a sample email written at this link: you can copy and paste it, or modify it as you see fit. https://app.activoice.org/campaign/stop-the-stall/ You will be taken to the appropriate submission page.

Comments are due by February 27th. The commissioner's meeting is March 5th in Denver if anyone would like to come with me to give comments in person. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Took a while to recover, but had a great time at the Fly Fishing Show last weekend. Looking forward to fishing whatever small bit of water we'll be able to find.
