: South Platte River: Elevenmile Canyon - Flows are down to a comfortable 145 cfs as of this posting, 4 July; and the water is clear. Fishing is very good. Dry fly fishing is really picking up. Caddis, Pale Morning Duns and some Tricos are about. The peak for the Tricos is still a while away, but they're coming. Nymphing is still good as well. Pheasant Tails, WD 40's, Black RS2's all in size #20, and Yellow Stonefly Nymphs #16 are working. Please remember that Elevenmile Canyon Regulations are flies and lures, catch and release only upstream of Springer Gulch Bridge. Downstream of Springer Gulch Bridge is standard regulations and there are plenty of fish in this large section of the river. (btwn Spinney and Eleven Mile) - Flow: 183 cfs 7/19/2010 13:30, Gage Height: 1.51 Ft. Techniques: Buckskins, Mercury Pheasant Tails, Sparkle Wing RS II's, Copper johns, pheasant tails, damsels, and san juan worms. Between Spinney Mountain and Eleven Mile Reservoirs is catch and release, artificial flies and lures only. Reported by: Colorado D.O.W |
