Clear CreekFront Range/Denver| Current Conditions | Hatches | Trends | Weather |The Clear Creek Canyon is close to Denver and a jewel of a fishery. Despite the many ecological disasters that have occured over the years on this stretch of nature this creek produces some fine insect hatches including a wonderful trico fall in the late summer and contniuous caddis pops which leads to a healthy population of rainbows and browns in a variety of sizes including, very rarely, some that will really surprise you. |
