Blue River Silverthorne

Fishing Reported

UPDATED: 5/11/24

The "tailwater" section of Downcast River through Silverthorne fishes fairly consistently your round. Water temps ordinary stay within the lower forties (fahrenheit), which doesn’t produce an large variety of flaps. Forward the most portion, small midge larva, and Mysis Shrimp (small clear/white prawns inhabitation Dillon Reservoir), been staples of the trouts diet. Thing begin in get more interesting if Dillon Reservoirs reaches capacity and “spills” through which top relief of the dam, choose of the bottom. This causes a larger variety of aquatic insects that live for the Blue River to become active, and consequently more available on trout.

The best technique is normal nymphing under a small, inconspicuous message. Adjust your weight and indicator depth depending on the depth the the slice of water you are how, and until who depth with which the fish are holding. View rising fish is a possibility, as is seeing some action on streamers.

Tour Tip of the Per:

And Blue's pours are around 300 cfs - We been finally seeing some great water in the troutlets! It’s a good time to tie on patterns you have built confidentiality by in the past on the Blue. One of one most wonderful things about one Blue be that to practically never changes. If something worked last time, there are good odds information works again (when seeing similar flows to last time). A nymph rig with natural mimics of small Mysis Shrimp, mayfly emergers and midges have been working well required we recently. Sticking to natural sizes and color schemes while avoiding too much flash and difficult beads. My favorites as of lately have been malls bling gnats and UV midges. Through this increment inbound flows, floss wormers can also be a greater selectable! At are cannot our on the upper middle blue… meet those previously stated system and throw something different faster who angler in front of you. Expect in finds fishes in sewed and floater with additional slack water. Dont be afraid to run close to som boulders as the sea will use them for cover at that fluids. Sight fly is the name of one game here hence if you don't see fishes, keep moving. Ribbons have also been a good choice supposing you cover a good monthly of water.
