The Colorado River

Trophy Rainbow Trout

and You…

Some people describe the Colorado River at Lees Ferry as “The World’s Largest Spring Creek.”

In reality, it’s a massive, clear running tailwater fishery running 15.5 miles from the outflow of Lake Powell at Glen Canyon Dam to the upper end of the Grand Canyon. Indeed, at times it gives the impression of being not one or two, but a series of parallel spring creek-like waterways … a short run that sweeps past a large rock; a 500 yard stretch that follows the old river channel; or a long glide where rainbows lurk to take midges.

To the uninitiated, fly fishing the Colorado River at Lees Ferry is like casting a needle in a haystack. To your professional guide, the river is a road map. With Rainbow Trout at the end of the line.

Of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World only one has great  fishing for wild rainbow trout. You have read about it and seen it on TV, now come and see for yourself why Lees Ferry is on every fishers “must do” list.
