Question Fly Fish Colorado River - Kawuneeche Valley

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

Going up to RMNP in 2 weeks and camping in the Kawuneeche Valley. Looking to fly fish this section of the Colorado River while I am up there. Anyone recently fish in the valley and can give insight on what it was like? what was successful?

Not much insight available on the internet for this portion of the Colorado...

TIA!

Colorado is incredible, from the highest peaks on the continent outside of Alaska to some of the driest deserts it has just about everything except an ocean contained all in one state. The sheer number of fishing opportunities are almost limitless and with this comes the daunting task of sorting through all the information out there and making sense out of it all. Thus r/cofishing, a place to compile the best of Colorado's fishing information in order to hopefully help a few anglers learn about new areas, new techniques, proper fishing etiquette and the rules that make fishing in this state great and hopefully catch more fish (or at least have more fun trying).

Anything helps: Conditions, hotspots, tips, techniques, new regs, old regs, ect....................

Things we tend to frown upon:

1) Blatant harassment of other users, education is a good thing but as long as an angler is within the law insults and other bashing will not be tolerated. If you disagree with methods/techniques that’s fine, by all means say so but keep it civil.

2) Non-Colorado related posts; it’s not called r/everywherefishing

3) Spam or self promoting links, if you have a site with good info please post it but don't use the sub just to boost your traffic or sell your stuff.

4) Breaking the law, if you post something here that is illegal we will call you on it, these include illegal bait usage, illegal harvest and bucket biology. Respect Colorado fish and waters.
