Cain Nub
The
new Cain Nub features the exciting,
full-bodied Cain blend in a
special line of
Nub sizes, creating one of the richest,
full-bodied and well-balanced
cigars on the
market. With the recent ratings and huge
popularity for both of these
types of cigars,
it only made sense to blend them into one
fine cigar. Currently we
have both the Cain
Nub Habano 460 and the Maduro 460 torpedo.
If you like either of these
cigars themselves, wait until you try them together!
Carlson
Vineyards 2008
‘Grand
Valley Colorado’ Tyrannosaurus Red
(Funny Name – Great Wine)
Since we began selling
Colorado wines back in 1999,
Carlson’s T-Red has been
one of our bestsellers.
T-Red
is
crafted from 100%
Colorado-grown Lemberger
grapes,
a
German grape that thrives in
our Rocky Mountain vineyards.
It is a
dry, medium-bodied red wine
that is slightly oaked.
Many of our customers
say it reminds them of a
good
Beaujolais from France.
T-Red is named after the
discovery of dinosaur
bones in the
early 1900s here in the
Grand Valley. Some
years later, the
massive T-Rex
skeleton on display at the
Chicago Field
Museum made a
larger-than-life impression on a
young Parker Carlson.
$14.99 a bottle - $161.95 case of 12
year for the fly fisherman. While the rivers have (or soon
will) come back down to normal summer levels, the result
is lots of hatches of many of our favorite summertime flies.
While this is a great time of year for the river or stream
fisher, it can be a real challenge for the fly fisher who
prefers lakes. In fishing the Bar ZX Ranch’s 28 lakes over
18 years now, we've found a few secrets to keep you
catching fish even in the hottest, clearest, still summer days.
Usually the lakes will remain at a comfortable temperature for the fish over night, the
temperatures can begin to rise dramatically as the sun has the chance to heat things up.
Here are a few tips on coaxing some friendly fish during those hottest hours.
1. When nothing else is working, try a large and colorful streamer. Many times fish will still
rise to the occasion especially if they are threatened by something as ugly as many of our
“goddy” streamers.
2. Sometimes all they need is bacon and eggs. In short, this is a good time to try various
colors of #10-#16 egg patterns. The bacon, in this case, is an attractive bead head pattern
dragging along behind the egg pattern. We especially recommend a Bead Headed, but Soft
Hackle version of either the Pheasant Tail (#14-20) or Hare’s Ear (#14-20).
3. Watch for the hatch. If you begin to see rising fish, there is a good reason for it. While
water temperatures can be too warm for the majority of fish to travel just below the surface,
many others will keep an eye open for a big dinner. Obviously if you can find out what is
hatching, use that pattern with an emerging or pupa version of the same attached to the dry
fly and trailing about 20-30 inches behind.
4. Sometimes Big flies = Big fish. Most of the time while belly boating we find that a large
attractor for a dry fly can be the ticket. Especially good in the summer months is a trusted
Hopper or Stimulator pattern.
5. Don’t forget the leeches, scuds and other terrestrials patterns. During the summer months
it seems like everything is airborne. Try to key in on areas nearer the shore like mossy areas
and reeds. The number of the insects listed above are abundant in these areas and switching
to these patterns can make the difference between fishing and napping.
6. Finally, some of the best action is on smaller bugs. If you are not seeing more substantial
feed like grasshoppers, beetles, ants and the like then go small. If you are seeing some rising
fish then try out a small (#18-#22) midge pattern trailed by a (#20-22) emerger.
With these tips in mind, your summer lake trips can easily last the entire day so don’t give up
hope. Just try our suggestions and let us know how they work for you.
We love fish stories in the store!
