Current Report
Fishing just outside of
Denver can be extremely
rewarding. Waterton Canyon
is just S. of Denver off
Wadsworth Blvd. Fishing is
extremely challenging this
year due to heavy rains
which cause heavy flows. The
river is clear and lower
than 2 weeks ago. Fishing
with midges is exciting, a
nice afternoon hatch of BWO
in the 18-20 range have been
very productive in the early
afternoon. Watch for cloud
cover, hatches are better. A
little known area is inside
Chatfield St. Park. Drive
into the park, find the dam
where the S. Platte starts
its journey to down town
Denver. You can find nice
size trout and the
occasional walleye below the
dam. Great time to fish.
