Deckers, South Platte River

Though difficult to put into words, there’s something about this section of The Platte that just feels as though it were designed for walk & wade fly fishing. The often gin clear water, mostly gravel stream bed, stunning scenery, abundant trout life, and ideal river width all come together to form a magical spot to fly fish on foot. Mule deer, eagles, and other Colorado wildlife also cruise these vibrant riverbanks as well, making the Deckers area of the South Platte a blissful wilderness escape, seemingly right in Denver’s backyard.

Our guides have intimate knowledge of this South Platte fishery and will teach you how to be successful here. Book a trip to Deckers and experience a slice of Colorado fly fishing history. Then, sit back and relax while taking in the Colorado sunshine, a majestic view of Long Scraggy Peak, and the pure satisfaction of a day spent fly fishing.
