Fly Fishing at Clear Creek, Colorado
Rating: 3/5
Current River Conditions
December 3, 2024
The water is very low on Clear Creek right now, but fishing has still been very consistent lately. Dry flies have still been very productive, but light nymphing rigs have been yielding the best results. Midges have been the only hatch lately, so anticipate the majority of your action coming from those patterns. However, fishing micro eggs, small stoneflies, and euro-style flies will bring in plenty of fish. There are many stretches beginning to be consumed by ice, but find open water and expect great fishing.
