Decker’s Fishing Report 9/28/16

Good Evening!

Welcome back to the only daily fishing report on internet!  Now that I’m back to the valley, it’s time to catch you up on the current conditions and what’s happening with the Trout!  The river flow was bumped up the other day and we’ve currently got flows of 482 below the dam at Cheesman, and just slightly lower at 475 in Trumbull. Didn’t get a chance to personally fish today, but going out early in the morning to try my luck for the first time in 2 weeks! Word is that the fishing has been up and down with flow bumps, but we’re on the end of that and things should start to improve as the fish are moving more about the feeding columns. Mornings are still producing with Trico’s, moving on to a dry-dropper or nymphing rig util about 4 or 5 in the evening.  I just spent a few minutes walking the river, checking clarity and moss levels. Doesn’t look like the moss is much of a problem, as most of dead stuff was cleared out with the flush we received a few weeks ago. Great weather is still bringing larger crowds on the weekends, so if that’s when you’re planning on a visit, get here early and cover lots of water. Don’t forget there’s excellent fishing downstream from Decker’s, all the way down to the confluence of the North and South forks of the river. It’s a great time to camp in the South Platte River Valley, with 4 campgrounds to chose from in our immediate area. Only the Lone Rock Campground takes reservations and you can make them right here by clicking on the link http://www.reserveamerica.com. Whether you’re in need of flies, gear or want to book a fly-fishing trip, stop in to Flies and Lies, or visit http://www.flies-n-lies.com today! I’ll be posting a mid-day fishing report tomorrow, as I’m heading out early to fish the Lone Rock Campground area, then downstream to Trumbull. That’s all for now folks! Hope to see you on the river soon!
