Welcome Angler,

With a new state record Lake Trout, incredible streams, and mind-blowing alpine lakes the Gunnison Valley is a premiere vacation destination.  We know you're hooked on the fishing, so please enjoy the following inside look at current conditions from Willowfly Anglers at Three Rivers Resort and Outfitting:


Taylor River:
Standard nymph patterns, including Pheasant Tails, stoneflies, caddis, Copper Johns, and Hare's Ears. Also try a Wooly Bugger - black or olive 6-8, and Western Coachman. Streamers - black, olive, white/yellow. Dry fly action with caddis, stoneflies, and Green Drakes and PMDs.


Taylor Catch and Release:
Small nymph and midge patterns, including Pheasant Tails 20-24, midges 20-24, and mysis shrimp 20-24. Dry fly action with small midges, BWOs 18-24, and PMDs 14-16.


Gunnison River:
The Gunnison is fishing well. Standard nymph patterns, including Pheasant Tails 12-22, Copper Johns 12-16, and stoneflies 6-12. Also try a Wooly Bugger - black or olive 6-8, and Western Coachman. Streamers - black, olive, white/yellow. There has been a very good caddis hatch, along with stoneflies, PMDs, and Green Drakes.


East River:
The East River is fishing well with both nymphs and dry flies. Dry fly action is very good with caddis and Yellow Sallies hatching throughout the day. Drakes (12-14) are now hatching and the fish are actively feeding in the riffles and on the edges of the fast water. Nymphing the fast water can be very productive.
