	Matt Seering We'll Miss You! On a very sad note myself and all the folks at Blue River Anglers want to pay tribute to the loss of a friend and guide Matt Seering. Matt lost his life on Saturday April 5th in a tragic Sky Diving accident. I am sure many of you may have fished with Matt and you know how much he will be missed by all his friends here and by all of you who have experienced his love and passion for the sport of fly fishing. He was a great friend and asset to all of us here. He will be missed forever. So the next time you catch a fish or think about being on the water, take a moment to think of Matt and how lucky you are to enjoy the small beauties of life. Sincerely, Everyone at Blue River Anglers

	Nick Arnold Nick is from Colorado and is currently a college student when not guiding or fishing for him self. Nick likes to say that he is a college student with an extreme love for fly- fishing. Or. I mean a fly fisherman with and extreme appreciation for school. Nick was, introduced to the sport of fly-fishing by his father at the age of eight, after 3 years of snoopy pole experience. Nicks first fly-fishing experiences were in some of Colorados best high-elevated cutthroat lakes. These experiences reinforced a spontaneous impulsive reaction for a 9-foot graphite rod and oxygenated water. Shortly after experiencing his first tastes of fishing with a fly rod, Nick began tying flies at the age of 9. These experiences grew a passion for learning of fly-fishing. Nick spent a considerable amount of time reading up on diverse trout waters, gaining a good understanding in the art of building fly rods, and studying in-depth information regarding aquatic insects. You will notice that for Nick fly-fishing is not just an activity it is a way of life. All these attributes give Nick a highly rounded knowledge of the sport of fly-fishing. This knowledge, experience and great personality, make Nick a great choice for a one of a kind fly-fishing trip.
