Creek, Dogs Allowed, Guides AllowedDiscover this picturesque mile of South Boulder Creek near Rollinsville, Colorado. Only an hour's drive from Denver, this property will have anglers dreaming of a quick day trip to this mountain getaway.
Accessing this stunning mountain stream varies depending on access point. The upper third of the property will be moderately difficult for most anglers. This small canyon section offers up steeper access points but will reward the adventuring angler. The upstream parking location allows for an easy access point to the river. As anglers continue downstream access will become much easier. The lower two-thirds of the property has multiple access points that will require little effort from most anglers. Throughout the property, the creek bed is made up of a common rocky mountain substrate of medium to large stones (12-36”) with small stones scattered throughout filling in the gaps. Depending on the time of year some anglers will feel more comfortable if they bring a wading staff. Throughout the property, anglers will target eager fish in deep holes, long runs, and tight pockets along the banks. Remember to not overlook the shallow riffles, many optimistic fish await.
While on property anglers will be targeting Brooke, Brown, Cutthroat, and Rainbow Trout. For the best experience, anglers will want to come prepared with 3 to 5 wt rods ranging in length from 6'6" to 9'. However, if your quiver offers a Eruo Nymping setup it will make a great addition to your day on this property. Depending on the time of year this property allows for wet wading. The riverbed has a substrate of medium to large stones with small bedrock scattered throughout.
The riverbed may be slippery for some angler a wading staff may be required. The flows on this section of South Boulder Creek are controlled by Moffet Tunnel and may fluctuate.

The best time to fish South Boulder Creek typically depends on a few factors:
Spring (April to June): This can be a challenging time for most anglers due to potential runoff conditions. However, fish are still actively eating during high water. Anglers will find fish hanging close to the banks and more than likely anglers will not even need to step into the water. Spring hatches of insects like midges, mayflies, and caddisflies make for productive fishing.
Summer (July to August): This season is when South Boulder Creek starts to hit its stride. Early morning and late evenings are a great time to key in on the dry fly action. During the peak of the day fish tend to push deep, make sure to get your dropper down deep in the water column. Be sure to follow Hoot Owl regulations during warmer months to protect the fishery.
Fall (September to October): Fall offers unbelievable scenery and spectacular fishing opportunities. As fish are preparing for winter they are actively packing on the lbs. Cooler temperatures and less fishing pressure make this a favorable time. Winter (November to March): Winter fishing can be challenging due to colder temperatures and lower water levels. However, if conditions allow, some anglers find success with specific winter tactics. In general, the best time to fish will be early morning or late evening when fish are most active. Always check local conditions and regulations before heading out

This was my 2nd time fishing the property…water flows at 570cfs on a blue-bird day. Fishable water limited to edges only, and I had one brief downstream hook-up (on a squirmy worm) that broke off in fast water. I worked the entire property length with no success. Last outing was low flows and clear, this was high and fast…need to find the “sweet spot” next time. I appreciate the property owners making it available to RW.
