MIDDLE FORK OF THE SOUTH PLATTE
FLY FISHING IN TOMAHAWK STATE WILDLIFE AREA
The resident fish of Tomahawk average 6-12 inches but during certain times of year, some very large trout migrate out of Spinney Reservoir and spawn in this section. While we never target actively spawning fish, we can occasionally find large pre spawn fish and ethically target them. This is always a treat, big fish out of a small creek! But again, this is all about timing. More often than not, you fish this section for the solitude, beauty, and small but plentiful wild fish. An added bonus, the fish on this creek love dry flies. This streamcan be a great place to spend a day watching browns chase dry flies along the banks.
We guide the South Platte here with commercial use permits from both Colorado Parks and Wildlife and Colorado State Parks
