Midges Midges and Midges

June 14, 2016

Good Morning from the beautiful foothills of the Colorado Mountains!! Chef Chris here in Decker’s with your morning weather and river conditions in Decker’s, Colorado.  It’s a magnificent morning up here in Decker’s today,with sunny blue skies and a pleasant forecast. Right now, It’s 45 degrees  and will be getting into the mid-70’s into the afternoon.  The midges were coming off thick this morning, ranging in size from about  #18-#20.   The river by the bridge and up towards the “turn hole” is a little cloudy after last nights rains, but noticeably more clear as you go up towards the “wire”  Water flow is at 546 (cfs) at the Trumble Bridge Station. Horse Creek is pumping pretty good into the Platte at Decker’s bridge this morning, after the rain run-off, and it’s causing some cloudiness below the bridge.  I didn’t spot one angler this morning from the bridge to the hill, so theirs plenty of room to toss a fly!  Come on up and take advantage of the sunshine and great weather!  And  while you enjoy your day on the South Platte , let us here at the Decker’s Corner Café take care of lunch and a refreshing beverage. Remember!! Do something good today, take a kid fishing!!!

Have a great day!!

Chef Chris
