The Gunnison continues to fish very well! Lately streamers have been producing nice browns. White in the morning, yellow in the afternoon and olive toward the evening. Blow torch or flamethrower patters are working nicely as well as JuJu Baetis. .
Fishing remains hot in the Gunnison Valley! Hopper droppers with perdigons and Pat's RL's are great combo on the Gunnison, as is drifting or stripping thin mints! Olive and black streamers are also a strong choice. Caddis pupa, soft hackles.
Flows have dropped considerably and our summer pattern of great days on the water continue! Stonefly nymphs and dries along with caddis are predominant on the lower Gunnison above Blue Mesa Reservoir, don't forget to swing those soft hackles for.
As flows continue to decrease, fishing on the Gunnison is starting to blow up! Wading deep is still not a recommended option but when the fish are tucked in the edges why would would you! The river is starting to.
GREEN DRAKES ALONG WITH YELLOW SALLY'S HAVE JOINED THE CADDIS ON THE GUNNISON BELOW THE HIGHWAY 50 BRIDGE DOWN TO BLUE MESA RESERVOIR! AS THE WATER CONTINUES TO DROP THE FISH WILL START PAYING MORE ATTENTION TO THEM ON TOP! .
