Fishing Report

June 19, 2025

Summer is here and fishing has been great lately! All of our rivers are in great condition and have very friendly flows. There have been lots of bugs starting to show face and the fish are loving it. We have had very warm and dry temps throughout the day and the fish tend to shut down for a bit. Water temps have been peaking around 59 degrees so nothing to worry about there.

Gunnison River

The Gunnison is fishing amazing right now. Get it while you can. We have been seeing great hatches throughout the day of Caddis, Green Drakes, Golden stones and Pmd’s. Fish are sitting where they should be and very eager to look up. Switching between hopper dropper and double dries have been excellent throughout the entire day.

If I am not throwing dries, I am throwing a hopper dropper on shelves, pockets and banks.

Stonefly nymphs, Pheasant tail (14-18), Radiation Baetis (16-20), 20 Incher stone (14-10), Pats Rubber legs (14-10). Caddis dries, Drake dries, Chubby chernobyls.
