did ya all know ec is a hudge flyfisherman?
alright we are now on permitted water from below the crook camp ramp.
You need to git a fun float permit to float into the ladore take out
with the nps in vernal being the org that bestows them.
the 49 miles into and thru ladore to split mountain is a lottery based permit
or numerous outfitters ,oars ,dino etc run it on commercial trips.
All the previous river miles are public waters.
Only the commercial outfitters in Groga
Green River outfitters and guide association are allowed to guide for profit, monitary gains bartering of things of worth etc.
This is pretty hard to enforce and yeah i see you greenies and others only occupying the rowers seat, netting fish, undoing penalty box tangles and spending the entire day doing a lot of "guide" type things.
its one of those hard to prove so we ca neasily git away with it things
ive heard rumors their doing away with the guide license requirements not sure if its both fishing and white water.
This is new water to me.
Some value this experience more than others
its sometimes a tradeoff
At this point barring sum unexpected financial windfall im pretty sure i aint gonna throw in all the 50 places to fling flies before you dies books
But if im blessed to get to a thousand on one of them and gain the experience and knowledge that kind of time brings on "home" waters
im good wit dat
and theres a damn good reason why the greens in that book
It is and should always remain a special waterway
Thanks to people like Dennis Breer (fip) who fought hard for 800cfs minimal flows
and to create and maintain such an amazing tailwater fisheries
Denny was a big bear of a man, sometimes gruff, well maybe most, he'd pretty much tell you what he thought whether you wanted to hear it or not.
If you made him Smile or compliment you were probably doin the thing right.
Another person of merit who deserves mention would be the "dean of the green"
Emmit Heath, i am honored to have worked for and been mentored by such good people.
The fight to protect this waterway goes on
Google "green with envy"
or dont
and when we say its our damn water it means ours to stay in the gorge and be released into the river
not some asininely stupid millionaire pipe dream of well manicured colorado
sudivision lawns of grass needing lager amounts of water.
somethings are worth fighting for and that river and its well being are high on my list.
