- Join Kyle, Gage, and Tim as they fish the Arkansas River on cold winter day for rainbow trout. What they though would be a slow day of fishing on an unfamiliar river, turned out to be a fantastic day with several fish to the net!

Cant think of a better way to spend a cold winter day, you guys were hammerin those cold-bows, fun to watch. On the go-pro action, aside from the u-w releases, when you were landing the fish in your net, what mount did you use? Chesty, helmet mount or? Thanks. Topnotch video setting up the location and capturing all the trout action. Stay Frosty
Another beautiful video!!
Ark Near Cotopaxi fished very well last week. hungry browns!!
Always enjoy your videos, even in my back yard.
Thanks, TravelsAndMore! I appreciate it. -Tim
That's a fun spot, but when the weather is warmer expect a lot more anglers. That bridge is usually stacked up with people. Thanks for the video.
Yeah but in summer and spring cfs is way too heigh for good fishing
@@rockymountaintrout2689 Yes, that's a very good point. I meant warmer weather in the winter, as opposed to the temps they experienced on this day.
@@E-M-C yeah I've been there on 60 degree December days and the place is packed.
These runs on the Ark produce for sure. Especially the little guys, which is always great too see! Awesome too see you all fishing my weekly waters! Killer day!
Thanks, Tyler! It was a cold but truly fun day. -Tim
Great video again! I’m catching up on your earlier videos and this one was excellent. I live very near the Arkansas River in Tulsa - great trout fishery upstream, a great striper/hybrid fly fishing downstream here in the warm water. Long live Zeke…
Great video! Nice fish.
Great video! I subscribed. I like to see people passing through my backyard and enjoying themselves. My husband brought me to your channel. He's trying to teach me how to fly fish, bless his heart. I suppose I'll get the hang of it someday.
Well, thanks for the subscription and good luck on learning this great pastime! You live on a fantastic fishery and I have no doubt you’ll bring many trout to the net. -Tim
Great video as always! And beautiful fish!
My home waters. Everyone likes talking crap on Pueblo until they want open water in the winter........
I liked it. I thought the high desert landscape coupled with the massive cottonwood trees made for a unique fly fishing experience. I’ll definitely fish there again. -Tim
Great video, thanks for sharing. I fished the Ark tailwater this winter on some very cold days but had a great time and caught some nice rainbows. Nice alternative that is less crowded than Deckers.
Watched many of your videos, you guys do a great job making them. Keep them coming.
Thanks, Buddy! I appreciate that you enjoy our videos. Thanks for sharing your experience on the Ark. -Tim
great video. I miss living out in CO.
Definitely a good section of the river to fish in winter. A lot of people take fish home and mishandle fish in the river but they stock it so much it keeps good numbers lol.
That's some great information. Too bad so many people fish there in the summer. -Tim
Pueblo tail water got to love love it I’ve got a lot of videos from this river on my channel nice to see more people catch and release and handle the fish with care maybe I’ll see you out there sometime
I hope our paths cross. Just watched your latest video. Subscribed! Keep up the great work. -Tim
It’s not my favorite place to fish, but it does produce! Sometimes i feel like the drive is about 25 mins too long. Whatever though. It’s always a little warmer at least. Great video thanks for posting!
Awesome video!!
Thanks, Jesse! -Tim
Nice job guys, looks like you had a great time!
Looks like an epic icy day y'all had! The Ark rarely disappoints! I'm heading down there tomorrow morning🤙🏼🍻
Good luck, Dave! Let me know if fished well. -Tim
@@CombatFlyFishing will do!!
Nice day out boys!
Man I caught some monsters under that bridge.
NICE FLY FISHING, IM KOREAN FLY FISHER. THANKS GOOD VIDEO!!
Trout love sucker eggs. Say thank you to Zeke!
They do indeed, David! Circle of life. -Tim
I was just there this last weekend and had some luck in the exact same pool on Sunday.
Yeah, that’s a terrific run. -Tim
Nice fish! What size tippet were you using?
5X and 6X
were you guys fishing the lower section or the section right below the reservoir? great work!
Not real familiar with all the names of the holes and stretches. We covered a lot of water. We started about two miles down stream of the dam and worked our way up to the dam. -Tim
Nice video! I kinda dislike the amusement park aspect of this place but looks like it wasn’t too crowded for you guys! I might try to get down there this weekend myself.
Yeah, the weather must have kept people off the river. Sounds like it's a pretty popular spot. -Tim
Compared to other tailwaters, the Ark through Pueblo is a very quiet amusement park lol
@@matthewwesley2179 it wasn’t last weekend! 🤪
@@FlickyFlies lol yep it's still an amusement park but compared to Deckers, the Dream Stream, Elevenmile.. I always seem to find some decent quiet water in Pueblo
@@matthewwesley2179 yeah I generally agree with that! I think I’m just ready for some free flowing waters to open up for some real solitude.
I was down there fishing when no one would get near the Nature Center.
Eh?
I've heard they've done a lot of restoration and cleanup over the years. -Tim
be careful in that parking lot someone broke into my truck last time I fished there
Yikes! Hope they didn’t get much. Thanks for the heads up. -Tim
Pueblo, CO
great work! where was the last spot you went to specifically on the river?
How come you didnt show the fish you were calling a "zeke"? No clue what that was, would have been nice to see it. Some kind of sucker I take it? Otherwise great video
I commented too soon. Just heard the explanation.
Haha, mid 20s and you call that cold?
Great video! What size tippet were you using?
500lbs Paracord
They were probably using 5 or 6x idk
