3-DAY WEATHER FORECAST:
The section of the South Platte River flowing between Spinney Mountain and Elevenmile Reservoirs is Spinney Mountain Ranch, also known as the “Dream Stream”. This 3-mile tailwater offers anglers the opportunity of a lifetime to catch large trout. Located in the heart of South Park, tucked between 14,000-foot snow capped peaks on the west, rich ranchland to the north and south, and Pikes Peak on the east, Spinney is a well-balanced fishery where anglers can catch trout on nymphs, dry flies and streamers.
Fly-fishers can expect to catch a mixed bag of rainbows, browns, and cutthroats in 16-20 inch range. In addition spring (rainbows, and cutthroats) and fall (browns and kokanee salmon) spawning runs from Elevenmile Reservoir are quite impressive with fish up to 12 pounds landed during a key three-four week period. Ideal flow conditions for “Dream Stream” are between 100 CFS and 250 CFS. The regulations are flies and lures only and all fish must be returned to the water immediately.
