Fly Fishing Dolores River

Fly Fishing Dolores River

   

Colorado (CO) — Package: 20040


Package Details and Information:

Full day walk/wade trip including lunch and transportation to the river for 2 anglers max.

Once one of the best trout streams in the country, the Dolores River in southwestern Colorado is making a comeback and deserves attention when you're in the vicinity.

The Dolores became another Bureau of Reclamation disaster when water levels dropped to deadly 20 cfs. It's been years since this isolated but deadly incident and the trout are back in fighting good numbers.

Although good fishing exists above McPhee Reservoir it is the tail-water portion of the Dolores that hold the greatest challenge for fly-fishers.

Location and Fishing Information

Fly Fishing Dolores River -
Spring creek characteristics, long leaders, light tippets, big bugs and strong wind can often make the fishing difficult and challenging.

As we all know, reward is often commensurate with the level of grief encountered to be successful. Reward on the Dolores can be large, up to 24 inches large.

Many heavy shouldered own, rainbow and cutthroat trout call this beautiful river home. A stay in southwest Colorado wouldn't be complete with a trip to the Dolores.

Guided trips offered by Telluride Outside are full day only and include lunch.

Two anglers maximum recommended for this trip.

"Great bang for the buck. Beautiful, abundant fish in beautiful surroundings. Four fishing for three days. Three had never fished for Atlantics. All caught fish on the fly. Highlights of the trip, each caught a salmon, for three it was the first one. Salmon abundant, service and trip, Excellent!"
