Members Liv2flyfish Posted June 2, 2014 Members Share Posted June 2, 2014 Wow, very beautiful. Where are you located in Colorado and what rivers are close? I am an avid fly fisher. I love fishing the Ozarks and the White River watershed from the spring creeks to the tailwaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tito Degiosio Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 I am located in on the western slope in Cimarron CO. it is in Montrose county near the Gunnison county line there are several rivers near me so I'll start with the nearest first River: Distance: Notes: Little Cimarron river My Back Yard Access limited, challenging but rewarding fishing Big Cimarron River 6/10 mile Good access from-9000ft to 6500ft (5 Min to 30 min pending on where you go) Crystal reservoir 3 miles below Morrow point Dam (10 min or less drive) Gunnison River(PIne Creek) 15 miles Access at Pine Creek (below blue mesa dam) (15 Min drive + hike) Black canyon/Gunnison River 19 miles G Gold Medal Waters (Below Crystal Dam) (25 Min Drive)steep curvy road,national park Uncompahgre River 25+ miles Check Maps for access(limited due to private property) (25 Min drive to hour pending on where you go) Gunnison river (above 149 bridge 30+/- miles ending at Blue mesa reservoir going up into Gunnison (25 Min drive to hour Pending on where you go) Blue mesa has several feeder creeks that I did not list above they provide great fishing for both spin and fly fisherman There are many more rivers within a hour and half of us with good fishing along the way on some more back country roads ,there is also lots of lakes withing this area that provide great dry fly fishing and streaming there is not enough room to list all the lakes but I can list a few better ones if interested Tito DeGiosio & Cydney Siri Pleasnt Valley Cabin and Camping (Home of the fresh baked pies) www.pleasant-valley.biz 970-249-8330 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason R. Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I have fished that area a bit- I worked in Crawford CO (near Delta) at a ranch for a couple seasons. Beautiful area. I drove through Cimarron once or twice. Man I miss the Gunnison. What an incredible place. http://flyinthesouth.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
