Colorado Fly Fishing

New year 2012

Please check out our Closeout page. We have some very good prices on lots of closeout and over stock items.

We are having a very mild Januarry so far, and river conditions have been excellent for this time of year. There is no reason to get up early, Hit the river around Noon, and stay untill thesun is off the water. Midge larva have been the bug of choice, but eggs and even Streamers have been effective.

our fall spawn is over, but please be on the lookout for clean spawning gravel or "redds" and try to avoid wading through these areas.

We can also give you up-to-date information before your trip, give us a call at 1-800-781-8120. You can also contact us via our form or email.

Fly Fishing Guide Trips

We’ve been doing Colorado Fly Fishing Guide Trips on these waters since 1980 and hold outfitting permits for float and wade fishing on the Roaring Fork River, Eagle River and upper and lower Colorado River. We also offer wade fishing on both the Frying Pan River and the Crystal River, and have access to several private ranches and spring creeks that are capable of producing trophy trout. With the help of a long time outfitter of the Gunnison Gorge, we are now booking three-day/two-night fly-fishing trips on the ‘Gunnie’. This trip is a good bet especially when we are in the middle of runoff here in the valley.
