Colorado Classic - Float Trip - Capt. Joe Bouger

This Auction is for Seat 2 of 2

Saturday, September 26, 2026
Colorado Classic Fly-Fishing Tournament
Hosted by the High Plains Drifters Fly Fishing Club

Welcome Aboard the Green Machine

Some boats are serious.

Some boats are competitive.

And some boats are just a damn good time.

Welcome to the Green Machine.

Joe Bouger is an avid fly angler who loves being on the river, loves chasing trout, and knows that a great day of fishing is about a whole lot more than the final scorecard.

If you draw the winning bid for Joe's boat, come ready to fish hard, laugh a lot, and enjoy everything that makes the Colorado Classic such a great event.

Fish Hard. Have Fun.

Tournament day aboard the Green Machine is going to be about finding fish, making good presentations, trying different techniques, and taking advantage of every opportunity the Colorado River gives you.

But Joe isn't going to let a little friendly competition get in the way of having a great time.

Expect plenty of fishing, plenty of laughs, a few stories, and probably a little trash talking along the way.

Because at the end of the day, that's what the Colorado Classic is supposed to be.

Why Bid on the Green Machine?

🎣 A full day of Colorado Classic tournament fishing
🚣 An avid angler and experienced boat captain behind the oars
🌊 A chance to explore some great Colorado River water
🪰 Streamers, dries, nymphs—whatever it takes to find fish
🏆 Plenty of friendly competition
😂 Guaranteed laughs and a boat that doesn't take itself too seriously
💚 And, of course, a full day aboard the legendary Green Machine

Joe is donating his time and boat so that every dollar raised from this seat goes directly back to supporting High Plains Drifters.

You could bid on another boat...

But then you'd have to spend tournament day watching the Green Machine float by.

Get your bid in, grab your rod, and get ready for one heck of a day on the Colorado River with Joe Bouger!
