March 26, 2025

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Dallas Eastman from Fountain, Colorado. Dallas grew up mostly bass fishing in Minnesota but when he moved to Colorado in 2019, he quickly made some fishy friends that introduced him to fly fishing.

Dallas works full time as a carpenter and is a part time guide for his own outfitter Trouts and Stouts, where he focuses mostly on the tailwater sections of the Arkansas River around Pueblo and back country overnight trips in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.

We discuss the advantages and techniques for winter fishing on the Arkansas River.
