The 2nd annual Colorado Springs Fly Fishing Show hosted by Angler's Covey was held yesterday. Several industry reps were on hand to chat with the few hundred customers and anglers that came down on a funky snowy day.Fly tying clinics ran throughout the day and some excellent slide show / Power Point presentations covered great topics such as fishing effectively with streamers and the seasonal hatches in the Roaring Fork Valley. I took advantage of a large space and set up five seasonal layering scenarios and talked to several people about the appropriate Patagonia pieces they needed to stay comfy on the water. Angler's Covey has done a great job with their landscaping and have two large casting pools on the side of the building and just about every rod in the house got tested - and several were sold.
All in all a really fun event and a great success for the Covey. They moved a lot of product, educated local anglers and continued to build the strong community in the Springs. I was very glad to be a part of it.
