August 26, 2016 Fishing report

Good evening my fellow Anglers!

It was another glorious  day on the South Platte river today my friends. The rain held off most of the day and the fish were active this morning on the Tricos and remained aggressive through the day! The current flow below Cheesman is 281 cfs, 318 in Trumbull, and putting Decker’s at about 310/320 cfs. No doubt that the bug of the day was the grey RS-w sparkle wing, size 24. The Chocolate Thunder was also another productive bug today as we mostly nymphed all day today. It’s going to be a busy weekend in Decker’s , so if your looking for some less populated water and less pressured fish, head on downstream towards Willow Bend and Nighthawk and you’ll be sure to have more room to yourself and the fish typically are less skeptical and sometimes you can get away with, let’s just say, “a not so perfect drift.” The tubers are still trying to get in the last few runs of the year, so be patient and the fishing doesn’t get affected that much. Please remember to pick up your trash and if you see someone doing something they shouldn’t be doing, SAY SOMETHING! Be sure to check out our Facebook page, livedeckerscolorado.com. Have a great day and I’ll see you on the river!
