Fishing in the flat tops

[John87]

Me and some friends are headed to Colorado this fall, and I’m hoping to do some fishing while in the mountains. It’s been awhile since Ive used a fly rod, and am looking for a lightweight setup for backpacking. Any suggestions for a good backcountry fishing setup? Thanks.

4 piece 2-4wt, pick your poison brand wise, I would save money on the reel and get a quality rod, a light weight reel is all that is required and they are basically just line holders for the small stuff.

Not sure what water you will get into but I would go no longer than an 8 foot.
