I'll be flying in to Denver the week of September 19th and will be there for about a week and would like to do a little fishing while I'm there. Anyone have any recommendations on travel rods, species to target, places to try, and general tips on fishing the waters there? I know the west coast mentality of fishing and outdoors in general differs vastly from how it is here in Alabama.

I would also like to know if there's any tackle I can bring to try in the waters there. I would like to keep from buying too much while I'm there!
