In this episode we WadeOutThere with Chelsey Christy, from Denver, Colorado.  Chelsey started fly fishing on Colorado’s South Platte River and immediately caught the fly fishing bug.  She was spending so much time fly fishing and in her local fly shop, that they asked her to start guiding.  

Chelsey soon began searching for a way to connect with nature and the river on her own, further from some of the pressured waters of the front range.  Her searching took her to Southwestern Colorado’s many mountain creeks and streams that she now enjoys exploring and fishing on her time away from guiding.  

Chelsey is also an artist, and balances her time between guiding and painting. She has made several fishy designs for Colorado Trout Hunters Guide Service, where she also guides. 

We discuss the importance of your local guide shop when starting out, tips and tactics for high mountain creeks in Southwest Colorado, and how Christy embraces the beauty she finds in nature through her paintings.
