Here's a brief guide to fly fishing in and around the Vail Valley and our ski area region of the Colorado Rockies. We hope you'll respect the mountain environment and please practice catch and release on these streams - particularly since many trout populations are in decline because of whirling disease. To see what's happening on a regular basis read the daily log for current and archived results on local streams and others in adjoining states. A rating of local outfitters is also available. Planning on fishing the Eagle River? View our newly created Google map guide or the original access page and hatch chart for this popular local stream. A weekly statewide fishing report is provided during the summer months, and you can always get an up to the minute forecast of weather conditions. Traveling through the area you might enjoy trying some of these personal favorite and mildly offbeat dining spots. |
Here's a late fall nymphing trip on the Roaring Fork in November, 2009.
Check flow rates on all Colorado streams on a real time basis. Visit our page of successful local fly patterns, and if you need a simple streamcraft reminder on how to approach local Colorado waters, do a quick review of the Ten Commandments+. | |

Here are a number of links I use over and over for information and for personal purchases. Yes they are commercial sites, but no one pays us to list them here. I simply find them helpful and valuable resources. For fishing conditions on the Green River below Flaming Gorge, other Utah fishing spots - or the Miracle Mile and related areas in Wyoming, click those. Here are extensive descriptions of streams and lakes in Yellowstone Park. Need to start a license purchase online, try these links for Colorado, Wyoming, or Utah. My favorite online stores for gear and tying materials are Cabela's, Orvis, and Feather Craft. | ||
