EXPERIENCE COLORADO FLY FISHING!

Fishing Trip Length Options:

1/2 DAY & 3/4 DAY FLY FISHING TRIPS:

Spend 4 or 6 hours on the water. These trips are the perfect choice for busy anglers. Often, they are just the right length for kids or those looking to try the sport for the first time. We generally schedule half day trips around peak fishing times, depending upon season and conditions. Note: lunch is not included in our 1/2 day and 3/4 day trips. 

FULL DAY FLY FISHING TRIPS:

The full day trip is our most frequently booked. These trips start in the morning and spend approximately 7 hours on the water fishing. Additional time is set aside to take a break, relax, and enjoy a freshly prepared streamside lunch.

Destinations

Public Waters

There are small creeks close to the city, famous technical tailwaters, and wilderness getaways that each serve as ideal recreational escapes. With wide-ranging variance in stream flows, habitat, and river structures, these diverse public water destinations create an exciting mix of angling challenges! 5280 Angler guides have the ideal experience and passion to match your fly fishing goals to the right fishing location.

Public Water Collage

Private Waters

5280 Angler works with private property owners who emphasize stream restoration and trout habitat improvement. This quality stewardship results in ecological balance, maximum trout holding capacity, and superior angling opportunities. Basically, these properties are paradise for both trout and anglers alike.
