Colorado - Colorado River
June is a risky month, when melting snow can transform many rivers into chocolate milk. But if you hit that window of opportunity as the water starts to clear, the upper sections of the Colorado explode with some of the best dry-fly fishing in the West. Check out the Kemp and Breeze units; if the Colorado is muddy, you can detour from there up the Williams Fork, a tailwater with epic caddisfly action. Cutthroat Anglers, 888-876-8818; fishcolorado.com
Guide's Tips
Species: Trout
Guide: Courtney Wiedel; Cutthroat Anglers; fishcolorado.com; 970-262-2878
Rig Specifics: 9-foot flyrod with dry flies and nymphs.
Quick Tip: When nymphing, be sensitive to your strike indicator. You want your bottom fly to be about 6 to 8 feet deep.
Where to Fish: The upper end of the Colorado.
