Fishing on the Arkansas River in Colorado

Anglers Junction offers the scenic beauty of the Wild Rocky Mountains as the setting for your guided fly-fishing adventure. From its pristine beginnings near Leadville, Colorado, the Arkansas River follows the 14,000-foot mountain peaks of the Collegiate Range south to Salida, Colorado. Here the Arkansas River turns east flowing through the Bighorn Sheep Canyon to the Royal Gorge and beyond.

The Arkansas River is a unique body of water, offering incredible fishing stretches that hold Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout. A float-fishing trip with one of our professional guides affords you access to public and private waters that are only accessible by boat.

The Arkansas is famous as one of the healthiest and most productive brown trout fisheries in the country. The Dry-fly season lasts from March through October. A healthy fish population and little pressure makes the Arkansas a great place for beginners and advanced fisherman alike.
