| Boulder Creek | Boulder Creek fish have been reacting well to the falling flows over the last month. The water temp is holding steady which means that the hatches are coming off thick and fish are eager to take single dry fly offerings. Hours between 1-4 have been slower, but my no means fish are hard to catch. Dry dropper rigs (attractor dries, size 10-16 and dropper BH fly size 18-12 about 14-18 inches behind the dry) have been the ticket. |

| South Boulder Creek | Perfect flows on SBC below gross res are between 80-120cfs. Within this rage the bugs are hatching throughout the day and crossing the river is no longer a scary endeavor. What luck! Right now the flow is perfect and should be holding for a while longer. PMD's, Drakes, Caddis, Stones, and Midges are all crawling around and some are even fluttering around on top. Get out and enjoy summer on South Boulder. |

Best Hatches on the Front Range![]() |

| Big Thompson | The best tailwater on the front range has been fishing great all week. Make sure to set your alarm early to beat the crowds and the heat. Fishing has been dropping off (weather dependent) from 12-4. Great hatches and the hoppers have shown up in full force. The tailwater has been hot and many fish over 20 inches have been caught over the last week. Enjoy fewer summer crowds now that school is back in session. |

| Clear Creek | Its easy to drive by Clear Creek in the canyon on your way to the Blue, Colo, Fork exc, but spend an afternoon in the canyon or near I-70 and you'll wonder why you ever make the driver to the western slope.
Wild Browns in the canyon will rise to offerings of Caddis, PMD, and a host of Terrestrials. Nypmh deep runs with stones, and caddis. Up river fish simple dry dropper rigs and take fish all day long. |

| RMNP | What you havent been up to the Park YET? Get up there...The hatches on the T, Fall, St Vrain, and Glacier are great! Dry Dropper fishing is the name of the game, hit any slow water and there are fish behind every rock.
The lake fishing has been superb, test your skills at Lilly, or go up and have a blast at Dream, Mills, Fern and a list of others. Throw small terrestrials (ants, beatles, hoppers) + strip small buggers = catch fish. |

Brainard Lakes are some of the most accessible high country lakes we have on the Front Range. Drive up to Brainard and fish for eager brookies out of your float tube. Hike up to Long lake ~1 Mile for great vistas and fish the creek that connects Long and Brainard, or go big and hike to Isabell. Make sure to bring small dries and your streamer box. |

HOT! Not the fishing but the temps. Overcast days makes for the best Bass fishing, or hit them in the last hour of light. The heat has moved the biggest fish deep, get at them with a float tube. Early morning for Carp will produce the best shots and mid day lull on trout streams can be filled with more carp. |
