September 15, Camping and fishing report

Good Morning Everyone!

Here we go friends! Getting right to it, we’ve got nice weather in Decker’s/Trumbull today. Sunshine for most the day, with some afternoon clouds that will clear out overnight. Sunshine and moderate temperatures is the forecast for the upcoming weekend! 423 cfs below the Cheesman Dam this morning, with a slightly lower flow through Decker’s/Trumbull at 417 cfs.  Clarity has improved greatly with consistent flows, with the moss not being nearly as bad as it was last week.  September is a great time to visit the South Platte river, as the summer crowds are gone and the fishing is great! If you’re looking to rent a cabin for a night, weekend, or week, check out our services page where you’ll links to Flies and Lies and the Decker’s Country Store. Both businesses offer nightly and weekly cabin rentals. The fire bans that were in place for the second half of our season have been lifted and campfires are once again allowed in the dispersed camping areas of the Pike National Forest.  Please don’t view the lift in the fire ban as a reason to be negligent. If you do have a campfire, please be sure to extinguish it properly before leaving camp. If you ever want to know the current status of the fire bans or restrictions in Jefferson County, Colorado, please visit http://jeffco.us/sheriff/wildfire/fire-restrictions-and-bans/. That’s all for now folks. Until next time, I hope to see you on the river!
