In early November, Denver Water made a surprise change and dramatically reduced flows from the Roberts Tunnel. This water is necessary for our “MVP” bows (like the one pictured, landed on the day before the flows dropped) and all the fish in the river to thrive. As a result of […]

Flows on the North Fork have remained steady and water clarity has been generally excellent. Flows from the Roberts Tunnel have provided an average flow around 200 cfs. Fish and anglers alike have enjoyed the cold clean water. Anglers are taking fish on small nymph combos such as worm-midge, mysis-baetis, […]
Denver Water turned on Roberts Tunnel and we have 200 cfs of Dillon Reservoir water. The fish are loving it and so are the anglers. We reopened on Thursday, July 20. Check out the beautiful fish that were landed.
Effective 07-10-23 both Boxwood and Long Meadow will be closed due to poor water quality. We don’t know how long the closure will last. We will reopen for fishing as soon as we have some water from Roberts Tunnel. Thank you for your support
You should have been here on any day in June. The water was perfect at 170-300 CFS and overall the weather was good. Anglers landed some great fish all month: 24 inch Tigers, 17 inch Brook Trout, 22 inch Palominos, and lots of Rainbows between 22 and 28 inches. We […]
Fishing is still great. While many of the rivers across the State are blown out by the run off, fishing has remained excellent at Boxwood and Long Meadow. Our water conditions are off colored with some clearing in the afternoon. Flows have been in the 170-230 cfs range. The guides […]
Wow…what a month so far. Water flows of 170 cfs and some nice warm weather have contributed to anglers landing a lot of trophy fish … particularly at Long Meadow. If you have not fished Long Meadow you should give it a try. Cross the fence at Boxwood and you […]
Anglers continued Landing trophy Trout in March. Open water helps and a heated clubhouse with indoor plumbing makes for an enjoyable trip. We think some of the 26-27 inch fish caught in March will be 30 inchers this summer. Book your trip…..test your skill and equipment on some amazing trout.
Anglers and fish alike have enjoyed open water along the North Fork this winter! As the days grow longer and temps have been warming, the fish have become more active, even chasing slow-stripped streamers. Egg-midge combos have been the best combo, and anglers ready to detect subtle strikes have been […]
Anglers have been enjoying fishable flows this winter on the North Fork South Platte! The fish have moved into their cold water wintering runs in the deep pools and tailouts near submerged structures. Most fish are fooled on nymph rigs, with egg-midge combos being the primary go to. Mysis, leech […]
