Flows have bumped into the 80cfs range, which will be very beneficial for fishing. Cold wintertime conditions will be a hurdle for most...but there can be some great opportunities for those who want to tough it out. Bundle up and bring your small fly box, but get out there and enjoy!
Flowrate above Elevenmile Reservoir: 80 cfs
Clarity: Clear
Clarity is strong and flows are currently in the average window
Its a midge fishery for the most part in the winter. You will be best suited to run a variety of attractor trico or BWO nymphs with a Midge Larva early and a Midge Pupa later on near the substrate. At times you'll find fish posted up feeding on adult Midges.

Like all of the other sections of the South Platte in South Park, cooler conditions have had some effect on the fishing over the last month. However, flows are still manageable, and fish are still eating...so bundle up and enjoy!
