On this trip we explore the three miles of public wading access on the Blue River below Green Mountain Reservoir near Heeney, Colorado. Enjoy the scenic views as we fish for Rainbow and Brown Trout in the riffles and troughs of this granite lined canyon.

Man, that was great. I grew up in Dillon in the 70's and 80's and the Blue was my home water. I mainly fished below the Dillon lake dam before it got developed with factory stores etc. Had no need to drive way down to Green Mountain to get good fishing but wow, that place was great. The quality of fish in there along with the beauty was awesome to see. Also, we used to jump that cliff into the reservoir at 3:08. That was fun to see. Keep up the good work!

This river must be ripping at 8000 cfs. Awesome video, the head on the rainbow was huge, nice fish. River etiquette is fairly rare.
@CombatFlyFishing
@CombatFlyFishing 3 года назад
Yeah, it was a good day. Flows as of 07/22/20 are surprisingly hovering around 400cfs. That’s a great flow to wade fish it. Might have to head back in the next couple days.

Incredible videos. Just got on your channel. I have watched four so far. What flies were working on the blue. Love the Indian Peak series. Look forward to more videos.
@CombatFlyFishing
@CombatFlyFishing 3 года назад
Paul, thank you. I’m glad you’re enjoying our videos. As far as flies go, it really depends on the flows and time of year, but there is an abundance of caddis, BWOs, and stone flies. Grey RS2s, Graphic Caddis, and flashback pheasant tails will bring plenty of trout to the net during the spring months.

13:18 about the Rollerskates and slick bowling balls!!!Wear felt with Teflon or aluminum or steel screws the best shoe for that river!!! Cabela’s has a great pair for under $100. Thick felt soul with aluminum screws!!! Go to Ace grab one of the screws from your boots and asked a salesman for the softest screw they have in that size and use that screw!!! you’ll never fall again in the Blue!!!

Awesome video I'm over here at work passing time. Would you recommend this area for mid March? Not from the area and I'm coming up for my brother in-laws birthday to do some euro nymphing. Not sure what would be best mid-march considering snow levels and accessibility. I would GREATLY appreciate any advice you are willing to share or even if there's a better river that's within 2 hours of Lakewood area to go to during Mid March. Please and thank you. Tight lines!!!

@CombatFlyFishing
@CombatFlyFishing 3 года назад
Landon, it really depends on the flows, and the water I’m fishing, but for these tail waters I like to tight line nymph when the fish or the run is close or within wading distance, otherwise I use an indicator system if I have to cast any distance. -Tim

Yes. Many people do it when the flows are up. There are some rough stretches, so an experienced oarsmen is necessary. -Tim

@CombatFlyFishing
@CombatFlyFishing 4 года назад
Well, I use the same flies I use for any of the Colorado tailwaters. Beatis patterns like P-tails, RS2s, Barr's Emergers, and Chocolate Thunders in sizes 18-22 will bring a fair amount of trout to the net. Caddis patterns like the Graphic Caddis, Hair's Ear, and Bucksins will make for a fantastic attractor fly.
