The Roaring Fork, Colorado, and Frying Pan rivers are in full spring conditions. Warm weather last week brought peak like flows throughout the valley, with cooler temps this week bringing the water level down. We will just have to wait and see what the weather does and how runoff continues from here. There is still a fair bit of snow up high but most of the low level snow seems to have already melted.
I got out a few days last week and had a great day on the water this Monday, all on the upper Roaring Fork. As you can see in the photos, the water is a touch high, but there are quality fish and uncrowded waters out there for those who know where to look. The Frying Pan is also at a very fishable level at the moment and the lower Fork can produce some banner days at these levels if you know your spots.
Don't be afraid of the spring trip. We have a lot of water at our disposal in this valley and our guides know where to be and how to produce this time of year. Give us a call at the shop for daily conditions as spring continues.
