: Poudre River - As of 10/11, flows have been low with clear water near Fort Collins. This makes it easy to spot fish but also makes it easy for them to spot you. The best stretch of the river to fish has been through the canyon. Water temperatures reported getting into the mid 50s during the warmest part of the day. The Poudre has a diverse insect ecosystem for a smaller river so paying attention to the surroundings will aid in what to tie on your rigs, especially in the fall. Right now, you can still see hatches of caddis, blue winged olives, pale morning duns and tricos. Pause and take a minute to take in the surroundings and look for hatches, fish feeding in deeper water or faster runs, and if the conditions favor a streamer then take advantage. A good rule of thumb for the Poudre this time of the year is smaller and darker colored bugs for your rigs. Some specific flies that are a good choice right now are Blue Poison Tungs, Mercury Midges, Griffiths Gnats, and a leach or San Juan worm as an attractor followed by a nymph.

| About: - The Poudre River has some of the finest trout fishing in the state of Colorado. Near the town of Rustic, wild trout waters are managed with special regulations so that fly and lure enthusiasts have the opportunity to fish for wild trout. On the remaining 50 miles of river, anglers may catch and keep stocked rainbow and brown trout. In the summer months, fishing pressure is heavy and the river utilized quite heavily by rafters and kayakers. |
