Colorado River –
Flow: 2,390 cfs/Glenwood Springs
Conditions: She’s a fishing! Those dedicated to the hopper/chubby are reporting anywhere from a few bites to more than a few bites depending on the day and the wind. Good flies to hang below have included #14-18 perdigons, bullets, jig rainbow warriors, jig princes. Most of us prefer the less snaggy jig versions of tried and true patterns. The streamer fishing has been fair during early mornings and late afternoons under cloud cover. It’s a far cry from the streamer fishing of November but can be fun nonetheless at times. Anglers shouldn’t expect easy fishing; you earn every fish caught here but the rewards are often larger fish and less pressure. Feel free to call us for daily river conditions 970.963.5741
