: Roaring Fork River - The Roaring Fork River has been flowing at 37 cfs in Aspen, 354 cfs in Basalt and 6768 cfs in Glenwood Springs. Without a doubt, the Roaring Fork is the most consistent freestone fishery in the entire state with autumn offering some of the best fishing of the year. The brown trout and whitefish are spawning now thus plenty of big fish (20+ inches) are being caught. Egg, baetis and midge patterns are best. The float fishing has been dynamite with streamers from Carbondale down to Glenwood Springs. The whole river has been fishing well, but is highlighted with spectacular fishing from Basalt to Glenwood. Hot flies include Flashtail Hot Eggs, STD's, BLM's, PT's, CJ's, RS2's, Freestone Emergers, Princes, Autumn Splendors, Stingin' Sculpins, Sacrileges, and Ziwi's. Reported by: Colorado D.O.W |

| About: -
The Roaring Fork River is a tributary of the Colorado River and is one Colorado's Blue Ribbon Rivers. The freestone river begins in one of
Colorado's highest mountain ranges near Independence Pass, then travels 70 miles
to the northwest, where it joins the Colorado River. Much of the river will flow thru
scenic ranchland river valley. Of the 70-miles, 40 are designated Gold Medal Waters.
Year-round fishing and heavy summer hatches that provide excellent Fly-fishing for wild brown and rainbow trout. Public access to the upper river is unlimited in the White River National Forest from the Difficult Creek Access on Highway 82 to the top of Independence Pass. The middle section of the Roaring Fork (from Aspen down to Carbondale) is the most popular stretch for anglers whom choose to wade. The river does provide easy accessed from many areas. |
