I just can’t believe how great the fishing was in December. After 15 years in the business to see fish being taken on Green Drakes….in December…. is just unreal. I think Sandi caught this one on a Black Pheasant Tail but her guide Tom Whitley had some tricks up his […]

December fishing has started out great. Brian landed a lot of trout bigger than this one but I was not in the area at the time. The fish he is holding hit on a #18 RS2 and during the next 30 minutes Brian hooked up and landed several more on […]

Stacey Ferguson is holding a really nice rainbow, his client, Mike, landed on a picture perfect winter fishing trip at Boxwood. The fish is as big around as it is long and it put up quite a tussel but it was no match for the skill of Mike. I might […]

It was Halloween and the monsters showed up to catch Monster trout at Boxwood. And they caught a lot of them, on dry flies, all day long. Larry lost track of how many 20 inch ++ fish he landed before lunch. October is one of the best months to battle […]

Matt C. spent the day with John Hagen Outdoors and landed “too many to count” fish like this one on a beautiful day at Boxwood. “The fishing has never been better” is a remark we heard all month from customers who fish Boxwood and or Long Meadow several times each […]

On August 14th a charity event was held at Boxwood for The Food Bank Of The Rockies. The Joe Sakic Celebrity Fly-Fishing Event raises money to provide meals for those in need. To date the event has raised well over $1.5 million. Many of the guides who fish at Boxwood […]

Fishing has been phenomenal all through the month. On and off Green Drake action has provided some 40 fish days for anglers that could get a good drift. Tadd Howard, from the Fly Fisher, netted this nice Rainbow for his client who landed quite a few fish like this one. […]

This is the photo of Jeff and the “elusive Palomino.” The fish is about 2 pounds. It took a fly that Jeff’s wife tied. Your guide will have all of the correct flies for your next trip to Boxwood. If you tie your own just give me a call for […]

June fishing has been better than excellent. Flows have been in the 350 to 450 CFS range. If you fish Western rivers you need to learn how to hook and land fish in big water. Our guides can give you plenty of help. Jeff, Matt and Jim fished with Hagen […]

May fishing was absolutely spectacular. Early in the month we had flows of 100cfs then as the month progressed we experienced just enough run-off to raise the flow to 300cfs. The water took on a little color and the fished just turned on to anything that was presented. The guides […]
