General Conditions:

South Platte River FishingCold mornings, however the next 10 days should bring ice pushing out, and prespawn fish moving in. Look for small numbers of fish holding in deep cuts to begin the run. Sight fish, target fish, and make drag free drifts. Best results with apricot/ roe egg patterns, and small attractor nymphs.
