December 12th
December days are quickly dwindling away. Soon 2016 will be upon us.
It’s a great weekend weather wise to fish the Missouri with temps forecast to be in the 40’s. Winds are currently calm and should be tolerable all weekend. Wolf Creek and Craig are ghost towns right now. Most of the people who are around are working in fly shops, waiting…hoping some folks come out to fish this weekend.
The phones have been busy the last few days with people booking their 2016 guide trips and lodging and there have been a few stragglers wandering in for bugs and what not but overall these are lonely December days in the canyon.
We’ve got a few guests booked for the coming week though it looks like we’re maybe in for some weather with a winter storm watch in effect from tomorrow afternoon through Tuesday morning. We could see up to six inches of new snow and possibly a foot or more in the higher elevations….let’s hope so!
You’ve still got plenty of time to get your Christmas shopping done at Wolf Creek Angler. We’ll be here in the shop today and tomorrow and back again on Wednesday and we’re always open for lodging and guide trips so don’t hesitate to give us a call. You could finish that shopping from the comfort of your couch this morning by just giving us a call and having us send WCA Gift Cards to all the fly fishers on your list. We are happy to sell you gear for Christmas presents but gift cards are really a great way to go. You can purchase them in any amount and they are good for everything we sell from merchandise to shuttles to lodging to guide trips to boat rentals…..EVERYTHING WE SELL! Want to give someone the gift of their dreams? How about a stay at Wolf Creek Angler and a day of fishing on the Missouri with one of our awesome expert guides? Give us a call and we’ll help you plan this trip of a lifetime.
Today’s featured gift idea…….Waders. If you fish you need them. Lot’s of folks do without them in the summer which is fine but if you fish in the spring and fall or all year-long like we do, you need waders.
