First the bad news… We must close fishing until May 1 (my best guess) Denver Water just shut off our water supply from Dillon Reservoir…they don’t need the water in Denver. Natural flow is quite low because our run-off from snow melt has not started yet. We will reopen for trips as soon as we […]
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of our friends from Boxwood. We saw a beautiful snow last week that has since melted but it transformed the ranch into a beautiful place. Enjoy!
We have plenty of Gin clear water and lots of fish. After our 8 week temporary closure due to low water we are now open again.(Denver Water says they will run water all winter) The fish look great, the clubhouse is warm and cozy, and the patio and firepit are ready for fish stories and […]
Denver Water will turn off the water supply through Roberts Tunnel on or about August 24 for repairs. They are not sure when/if they will turn on the water again this year.

Please contact one of our Authorized Outfitters to review other Covid-19 updates. For those that are healthy and want to fish, please know that a distant […]
Anglers — We are sorry for the delayed opening but we just don’t have enough water. It’s still very cold at higher elevations and the snow melt has been slow to get started. And Denver Water is not running water thru Roberts Tunnel because they don’t need the water in Denver. All of this contributes to […]
We were anticipating being able to open in April but now that seems too early.There is lots of ice and snow and we don’t know when Denver Water will start running water from Dillon Reservoir through Roberts Tunnel. We do feel confident that no matter what Denver Water does Mother Nature will provide enough snow […]
Denver Water is shutting off our water flow from Dillon Reservoir thru Roberts Tunnel. “They don’t need the water in Denver.” As a consequence our remaining natural flow will not be adequate for fly fishing. We will try to reopen in April when we have more water. Thanks for your support in 2019. We hope […]
