Perfect timing? | How two anglers find fish before runoff | Fly Fishing Colorado

This is when it pays to be a trout bum. Two perfect days fly fishing one of the many great rivers in Colorado.
Peak runoff in the western Untied States SUCKS. In states like Colorado, the warm spring weather and blown our rivers seem like some cruel joke. But before the depression fully sinks in, there is a brief window of time where you can experience some of the best fly fishing all spring (and maybe all year). You have to move quick and understand that conditions can shift just as fast as the spring winds. But if you can get on the water right after the ice dissipates and just before the winter snow pack melts.. You will find yourself staring down the barrel of hungry fish and empty rivers. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERYDAY.. aka we got so lucky.
This is fly fishing the "Peaks" before the "Peak"

[@edfaulx]

Wish I knew what water you guys were working.

[@chandlerchildress3610]

Great content. What depth are you fishing your indicator

[@FLYALLSZN]

Thank you so much Chandler! For this adventure I was fishing super shallow! I was between 6" & 12" at times.

[@oleerprosomvanlig]

What fishing rods do you use? 👍😊

[@FLYALLSZN]

Brand or size?

[@oleerprosomvanlig]

@@FLYALLSZN Brand and size would be nice. Do you use 5# when you fish with droppers?

[@FLYALLSZN]

@@oleerprosomvanlig Brand doesn't matter imo! The best rod you have is the best rod you have. Nice line will get our further than a nice rod. As far as size goes I stick with mostly a 5wt but it just depends on the water and the size of fish

[@oleerprosomvanlig]

@@FLYALLSZN how do you like your ANT fire rod? I like the look of it, but how does it perform?

[@brendonvirgil-virgilcustom8441]

You should fish Utah

[@FLYALLSZN]

It’s on my bucket list!
