River Statistics:
Low and clear are the waters of the Saint Vrain this time of year. The South branch will be icy and tough to find open water on for the next few, and is best left alone, although it is a pretty drive. Below Button Rock has been fishing good with small flies and light tippets. Try some 6x and size 20-24 midges under indicators. Caddis larva can be good as a point nymph, along with smaller stones. The fishing here gets going in late winter when midges get thicker in late february. The best fishing continues to be in around the town of Lyons. The sun hits the water and warms it just enough to keep the river a bit more alive. There is better bug activity, and the fish are both larger and more active. Try leeches, san juans, copper johns, zebra midges, caddis larva, and streamers stripped slow along the bottom. Town is the best for now, and moving upstream the fishing will get better as the days get longer. March can be a great month on the Vrain.

The Ultimate Fly Fishing Report
|
Casting a fly in a tranquil mountain stream, feeling the tug on the line,
and holding a beautiful rainbow trout makes us feel alive and intensely
connected with nature. Fly fishing is our way of life and we are blessed
with hundreds of nearby rivers and streams just a short distance away from
Boulder. From the swift spring waters of the Clear Creek to the meandering
bends of the South Platte, it's critical to consider fishing conditions in
advance and prepare accordingly. We rely on our experienced guides who venture
into the wild to let us know which rivers favor fly fishing, where fish are
biting, and which fly patterns are most effective. Planning a successful
fishing trip also requires knowledge of stream flows at various river points
and an accurate weather forecast for a given destination. At Rocky Mountain
Anglers, we are dedicated to providing all avid anglers with detailed and
timely information about hatches, water, and weather conditions. So before
you head out the door on your next fishing adventure, visit our web site to
find valuable information that will prepare you for a successful trip. Have
fun chasing after your next trophy trout and enjoy nature's beauty!
