The vacation guide for the angling family with information on the Gold Medal and Wild Trout waters of Colorado, including nearby towns and recreational opportunities. Chuck Fothergill was the originator of the outrigger technique, with was further popularized by Lefty Kreh, who used the term in a published article in Fly Fisherman magazine. It got the name due to the generally high rod position during the drift of the weighted nymph, and because it reminded him of the out-riggers on sailing vessels. Lefty never quite understood (until later years) that he had witnessed a brand new and most productive way of fishing. This method is now known to all fly fishermen simply as nymph-fishing. Chuck taught hundreds of people between Denver and Aspen to fish and tie flies. Many of these people went on to become guides and shop owners in Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana. In Aspen he taught the ?gang of eight? who were the premier fishermen and guides in Aspen for years ? Charlie Loughridge, Bob Sterling, George Odier, Frank Beer, Bob Simon, Terry Ross, Hal Clark, and George Manuel. Winter fly fishing was indeed introduced in the early 1970?s by Fothergill and his guides, using Chuck?s technique, practically unknown outside of Aspen at this time.…
