GLENWOOD SPRINGS COLORADO FISHING

Glenwood Springs is nationally recognized for its fishing excellence especially in regards to fly fishing. Year round, fly fishing is both possible and prolific. Some enthusiasts claim that winter, with the least amount of pressure on hatcheries, is one of the best times to cast away. Though spring through fall are more typical times to fish the region’s waterways, anytime is a good day to experience a Glenwood Springs fishing adventure!

FISHING COLORADO GOLD MEDAL WATERS

 

Colorado’s longest stretch of designated Gold Medal Water is located here in the Roaring Fork Valley, and there are additional stretches with the prestigious designation nearby. Not only is the fishing world-class in and around Glenwood Springs, it is easily accessible.

The area’s rivers are home to brookies, browns, cutthroats and rainbow trout. More remote small streams and high alpine lakes are scattered across the Flat Tops in the White River National Forest. Experienced, local fly fishing outfitters and guide services can answer questions, provide equipment and gear.
