High Alpine fishing at its best! The Cimarron River offers endless fishing for Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout, Cutthroat, and Brook Trout. As one of the most beautiful settings in Colorado, the Cimarron high country offers rare opportunities for solitude, native fish, and remote access. If you’re looking for a real Colorado backcountry experience, it doesn’t get any better than this. The Forks of the Cimarron ...

include the West Fork, Middle Fork, and East Fork, and each offer an exceptional high country angling experience. These small freestone streams provide miles of access, with riffles and pools, and plenty of trout. In addition to the Forks, the Big Cimarron includes a three-mile tailwater stretch below Silver Jack Reservoir. Large boulders and deep pools provide excellent habitat for large trout. Summer through early fall is the best time to fish the high country. After the snow melts and the Forks settle down, anglers can enjoy fishing dry flies at 9,600 feet with beautiful mountain scenery as the backdrop. After the summer mayfly and caddis hatches fade, it’s all about hoppers. Throwing dry flies and hopper patterns at native and wild trout is tough to beat!
