We have had a mild start to winter weather. Quite a few really nice days. The fishing has held up with good numbers of fish being landed, including some 26-28 inch Bows. Our population of Tigers is extremely high resulting in anglers landing 30% Tigers on each trip. You can have a comfortable winter trip […]
Anglers, We have been closed since October1 and we intend to stay closed until November 1. Denver Water has been having difficulty getting Roberts Tunnel fixed (At this time of the year most of our water would be coming thru the tunnel from Dillon Reservoir). Denver Water says the Tunnel will be running again by […]
August and September offered terrific fishing at Boxwood Gulch and Long Meadow Ranch! Anglers enjoyed clear water and average flows around 300 cfs. Sight fishing with various nymphs such as eggs, small soft hackle patterns, green copper johns, hare’s ears, sowbugs, and pheasant tails has been the most effective technique. On some days, anglers have […]
The fishing at Boxwood this June and July has been outstanding! Anglers have enjoyed hooking/landing double digit numbers and fish well over 20.” Excellent stream flows have been generally steady between 350-550 CFS, with an average of 400 flowing from the Roberts tunnel. As other rivers around the state have begun voluntary closures due to warm […]

Perfect flows of 230cfs with 200 from Lake Dillon provided gin clear water and some great sight fishing to 4-5 b Bows and spectacular Tigers. These photos say more than I can.
We have great water….100 cfs from Dillon Reservoir and 20 cfs from snow melt.Clarity is very good…you can see the bottom in 3-4 feet of water…not gin clear but perfect for fishing. We will be opening on May 3 with great water and lots of quality fish…see you this season.
Snow melt will help but it hasn’t started yet. Denver Water says that “they expect to turn on Roberts Tunnel within the next 2 -3 weeks”. All good, with fingers crossed, we will be open by May 1. Thank you for fishing at Boxwood/Long Meadow…we appreciate your business. Dan Mauritz
We are closed until the ice and snow melt and we get enough water for quality fishing trips. Based on our past 34 years in the business we think will be able to open sometime around late April or early May. While we wait we are opening up more angler access, improving trails, fixing equipment […]
