Rustic Ranch in Fraser, Colorado

Temperature: high 80's Flows: ~5 cfs Fish Landed: 2 Summary My angler buddies and I decided to venture to Fraser, CO, and try out the Ranch Creek Valley Vista. This is private water offered by the wonderful folks at RareWaters. Located about 1.5 hours from Denver, it makes for an easy day trip. It was a cold morning, with our breath visible and a light frost on the grass. Even though it was late August, it warmed up quickly as the day progressed.

Clear Creek Fly Fishing September 30, 2023

Temperature: high 70's Flows: ~100 cfs Fish Landed: 4 Summary I got a text from my buddy Art on Friday asking if I could fish over the weekend. I quickly checked the kids sports calendar and lucky for me, the last game ended around 12:30pm leaving me a whole afternoon to fish. To make things even better, I was already going to be in Arvada cutting down the trip time to reach our destination, Clear Creek Canyon.
