Current Report
Flows should remain steady at 9,500 cfs through the week. Fishing has been good on the upper 13 miles. Water clarity is very good. With the high flows, wading is pretty much out of the question.
Hot Fly Patterns
Worm patterns are doing very well, in the wire variation as well as the San Juans. [...]
John and Rebecca are wonderful hosts, the guide was outstanding, and I felt right at home at the lodge. Fishing was terrific. Sam was great in selecting the proper flies, took me to the most productive places on the river, coached me on bringing in the big rainbows. He was ourstanding. Ken W. Naples, FL
John and Rebecca run a great lodge. The combination of hospitality, scenery, quality guides and quality fishing made this one of the most enjoyable fishing trips I have been on. I would not change anything.
The meals were 5-star quality. Appetizers, Dinners, Breakfasts, Box lunches, were all delicious. Curtis H. Dallas, TX
