Current Report
The Big Thompson produced
today!!! 3 other anlgers
and I battled 20-30mph
winds, but patiently waited
for breaks in the howling
and netted about 10-12
rainbows in the 8"-12" range
between us (with several
other lost). Flashback
Pheasant Tails in the #18-
#22 range (some beadhead)
along with small red midges
in the #20-#22 range
produced all of the action.
We fished just on the Estes
Park side of Waltonia by the
Big Thompson handicapped
access ramp (1/4 mile up and
down stream of the parking
area). We fished from 8am-
12am and were all pleased
with our results. Snow
started to move down the
canyon from Estes around
noon and we headed back to
the front range. The Big T
gets the nickname the Big
Skunk by most in the party,
but not on this day. Don't
be afraid of 30ish degree
days and look try 2 dropper
rigs with beadheads, fishing
the deeper runs. Enjoy!!!
