Blue River

We have added a weekday trip for those folks who can’t make the weekend Moving Waters trips hosted by Harlan!

This month’s Moving Waters trip is to the Blue River. The Silverthorne stretch of the Blue is a pocket water paradise. Anglers can leave their “A River Run’s Through It” casts at home and instead focus on short and tactical casts. Anglers can expect to find Rainbow, Brown and Brook trout along this stretch with the highest concentration of trophy Rainbows being located below the dam. With the exception of Mysis Shrimp, the fly selection for the Blue is relatively consistent with the other popular Colorado tail waters. Size 18 – 24 Midge and Baetis nymphs produce year round. 

Meet at 7:45AM at the T-Rex Park-n-Ride near I-70 and C-470, the Morrison exit. Please contact Mark for the parking lot specifics as there are a few options at T-Rex. Here’s the address for mapping purposes: 18425 U.S. 40, Golden, CO 80401. 

Questions or to RSVP, contact Mark Davis at (303) 941-0393 or mdavissci22@gmail.com.
