Fishing Report

April 24, 2024

Spring weather is finally here. With warmer weather brings wind and increase in flows. The Gunnison River practically doubled overnight and is now full of some debris. If you aren’t battling wind then it seems you are battling flows and clarity. This does not mean that it wont fish well at times. Fishing has remained fairly consistent even with bad weather and increased flows. Seems like eggs and worms are still on the menu. Throw in a side of midges or baetis and you got yourself a winning combo. Focusing on winter holes under an indicator is still the most productive way to fish right now. Pick your battles with the weather and you should have a decent time out there.

San Juan Worm, squirmy worm, pig sticker in pink or red. Egg patterns in mottled orange or cream, zebra midges, small black baetis,
