In this week’s Rise Beyond River Report, we wade deep into Waterton Canyon—Denver’s backyard tailwater that fishes better than it should.
Flowing clean and clear at 52 CFS, the South Platte through Waterton is quietly producing solid days for anglers who know where (and when) to fish. We break down:
Best flies this week (RS2s, Parachute BWOs, and more)
Prime fishing times and why mid-morning is your window
Nymphing vs. dries: What works and where
Three overlooked access points you can hike or bike to
When to skip streamers and go all-in on technical dries
Plus, we talk shop about what’s happening in the hatch chart, when to expect caddis to really show up, and how to avoid the crowds.
If you’ve ever wondered if Waterton is still worth it—this episode gives you the intel you need to fish it right now.
