Lots of anglers are worried about how this low water is affecting our fish.So far so good. The fish are doing excellent. My daughter Dana and her son Austin fished for a few hours on 9-23-20. Using small nymphs and small black streamers they landed quite a few quality fish up to 28 inches…maybe some […]
Fishing/catching has remained excellent at both Boxwood and Long Meadow. Guides are reporting Caddis hatching at Long Meadow so some fish are being taken on the surface. Flows have been consistent with 380 cfs through Roberts Tunnel, from Lake Dillon, and 90-100 of natural flow. Our water is gin clear which provides lots of sight […]
Fishing/catching has remained quite good all thru June and July.We have plenty of gin clear water running at about 480 cfs with 350 cfs coming thru Roberts Tunnel from Dillon Reservoir….Thanks to Denver Water. Our water temp this morning, at 8:30, was a nice cold 46 degrees. Anglers from the mid west and the south […]
We opened on June 1 and ever since then the fishing has gotten better and better. Right now it is beyond fantastic. Some — not all — anglers” are landing 20+ fish. Total beginners are landing 4-5 fish up to 27 inches. Flows have been from 700 cfs to 400 cfs at 400-500 cfs and […]
I don’t think we ever officially opened this late in our 32+ year history. We had 2 full day and 3 1/2 day anglers with 3 different guides fishing in a flow of 400cfs. A total of 64 fish were landed mostly Rainbows up to 25 inches. Only a few Browns and Brookies up to […]
Curtis Fleming and his group from the Fly rod Chronicles TV show fished/filmed for 2 days. His show will be aired this winter giving Boxwood/Long Meadow anglers a late look at some big fish landed in November during winter conditions. We had to close for the season a few days after the film crew left because Denver Water […]
WOW….What a start for November. Larry landed this Trophy Boxwood Bow on a flying ant pattern that his guide, Nick, of 5280 Angler fame tied just for the trip. Imagine spotting this fish in gin clear water and then having it smash your floating ant pattern. Where else but at Boxwood would this possibly happen….and […]
We had great water all month. Thank you Denver Water. Anglers were able to spot and stalk fish like the one Scott landed with guide Jeremy Hamilton of 5280 Angler. Gin clear water and an experienced guide with some good luck produced quite a few trophy fish at both Boxwood and Long Meadow. Hot flies […]
September was a month to remember at Boxwood. Many fish in the 10 lb. range were hooked and landed. Anglers also enjoyed landing some of the biggest Palominos of the year, as well as some stunningly beautiful Browns and Tiger Trout. Fish have been landed on nymphs, streamers and dries. As veteran anglers to Boxwood […]
After being closed for nearly 6 weeks we re-opened and the fish were ready to play. We have plenty of cold, clean water thanks to Denver Water releasing some water from Dillon Reservoir thru Roberts Tunnel….the fish love it and so will you. The young fellow is Jake. He is quite an angler for his […]
