Fourmile Yak Ranch - North

Fishing

Fairplay, CO

1100 yards of Fourmile Creek at 9,700 feet elevation. Optimal stream flows range from 10 to 25 cfs, but fishing can be good at higher flows if the water is clear. Fourmile Creek is perfect small water fishing with a three-weight fly rod. Stream enhancements in 2010greatly increased fish habitat and reduced bank erosion. Countless tight meanders, deep pockets and undercut banks harbor abundant browns in the 5 to 12 inch range, with a few browns reaching up to 18 inches. A 25” cutthroat has also been caught in this section of the stream, and it is not uncommon to land 20”+ rainbows. Fishermen/women need to make sure to have a valid Colorado fishing license. This is CATCH AND RELEASE only.

Ragsdale Ranch - South Platte

Fishing

Conifer, CO

Nearly 3/4 of a mile of the North Fork of the South Platte just east of the town of Buffalo Creek. This property not only provides quality fishing, but also provides a breath of fresh air to get away and enjoy nature. This property is only located one hour southwest of Denver and provides easy access for a weekend fishing trip! In early spring, (Feb-Mar) the river is subject to be frozen in areas. This stretch of river contains browns, rainbows, and an occasional Brookie! Browns are typically larger in this stretch of water, so be prepared for a fight! SPEEDING OVER 15mph ON PRIVATE ROADS WILL RESULT IN FINES.
