Tricos and Blue Wings

The Yampa Valley is slowly becoming golden brown.  In other words, seasons are changing bringing prolific blue wing olive and trico hatches.The healthy trout throughout the rivers are migrating into the shallow riffles gorging on spent tricos and emerging blue wings.  It is not uncommon to see fifteen to twenty 18 + inch bows and browns in a pod no larger than a toyota truck in the head of any pool. This is the time of year to visit the Yampa Valley to test your skill for pre spawn Browns and energetic Rainbows.
