Fly Fishing in the Caja Mountains

We saw an ad on Gringo Tree about The Cuenca Fly Fishing Club having a meeting in the Cajas Mountains so we decided to go and learn about a sport we knew NOTHING about.  So on a Saturday we jumped in a cab and went to a Lodge called Dos Chorreras for our first lesson. Like a dope, I didn't take pictures of the lodge, Google it, it was BEAUTIFUL.  Our day started with a meeting detailing future plans for the club, followed by a FANTASTIC trout lunch, followed by a few lessons.
This is michael with our treacher Kent in the Gray hat. 


How do you like my new hat!


A young fellow that caught the biggest fish while we were there.  We had a dinner invitation that evening so we left early, but are planning on attending future meetings, we really liked the people we met, and we think Fly Fishing will be a great thing to do.  Michael has already ordered two rods for us!

That is so cool. You guys really get to enjoy the basic things life offers while we miss so much in the hustle, bustle of city life. The boy is so proud of his catch!
