Fishing Reports

Things are looking up, well, coming up. Currently the Gunnison in town is running between 867 at the whitewater park and 882 just west of there at county road 32. Fish can still be found though. Dredge the bottom with streamers and bigger bugs. Large black or darker colored stoneflies along with egg and worm patterns bounced on the bottom along the edges and in pocket water will produce fish. If you are floating, slap those big ugly streamers along the banks and pocket water as well, the fish are going to doing their best to stay out of the…

Welcome to spring in the valley!! Folks have been hitting the rivers as the shelf ice is no longer a factor on our major rivers and the fish are hungry!! Guide Gibby spent some time on the lower section of the upper Gunny and had good luck with several different patterns, including a grey soft hackle behind a SJ worm and a peacock thin mint. On the Cochetopa he caught fish on red SJ worms and purple perdigons. The browns were also actively chasing Galloups Dungeons in olive. The Coch was “Like chocolate milk with a surface temp of 40”!…

We would like to wish you all, a very Merry Christmas and a happy, prosperous New Year!! We are closed for the season, however, you can still shop on-line!! Remember, winter fishing is still possible on the Taylor below the dam. Be creative, tiny flies catch big fish, but big flies work in the winter too!

Guide “Gibby” is having good luck using red or olive Zebra midges, 2-bit hookers and Thin Mint streamers in olive, natural, peacock, orange or black. Enjoy the warm weather and the great fishing! “Tight lines, wade safe and leave no trace”

Fall is in the air! Cool morning’s and pleasant afternoons are helping to keep the water temps under control. The waters are all down, between our dismal snowpack and the now reduced flows from Taylor park reservoir, floating has become a bit more difficult. The Gunnison from Almont resort to north bridge is basically un-doable. From north bridge down you might have to portage some but you should be able to make it. The salmon have been in the river and the pool below Almont is full of salmon chasers. There is no sign of a brown spawn yet, but…

As we remember our fallen hero’s from the terrorist attacks not so long ago, take the time to contact a vet or a first responder and let them know, you have their back and appreciate what they do to keep our country and our neighborhoods safe. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all………..
