Taylor River September 01, 2024
Temperature: high 70's Flows: ~320 cfs Fish Landed: 9 Summary The Taylor is nestled in the heart of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains (about 3.5 hours from Denver) and is a true gem for anglers and outdoor enthusiasts. The river is renowned for its crystal-clear waters, abundant wildlife, and, of course, its trout fishing. Whether you’re wading through its gentle currents or casting into its deeper pools, the Taylor offers a perfect balance of challenge and reward. The combination of stunning mountain scenery and world-class fishing makes it a destination you’ll want to return to time and time again. The Taylor is one of my all time personal favorite rivers in Colorado. In fact, I just love Taylor Park for all it has to offer. Fishing, water sports, OHV, hiking, biking, and camping.
