Where We Fish on Colorado River Float Trips
Upper Colorado River Fly Fishing
On our Colorado River float trips, we typically fish around the upper Colorado River near Kremling as it has the best float fishing capabilities. In this section, expect to catch ample numbers of rainbow trout and brown trout with opportunity to catch a trophy trout.
Without a doubt, one of our favorite places to fish is Gore Canyon near Pumphouse, which is characterized by stunning red cliffs, exciting whitewater rapids, complex holding lays, and an arid pine forest landscape.
