Private Ranch Fishing
The Mountain Angler has secured rights to numerous private accesses throughout the area.
In many cases your party will be the only ones on the property.
On
e of our ranches, the Middle Fork near Fairplay, Colorado, is a premier property. Consisting of over 3,000 acres and 5 miles of river, this pristine setting is the home of wild Browns, Rainbows, Cutthroats and Brook Trout. This grand slam is not uncommon for Mountain Angler clients. In the late summer there is a spawning run of Browns up to 7 pounds. This is an easy wading stream, good for all levels of fishermen. It is the home water for the Middle Fork Flyfishing School held each summer, and is exclusive to the Mountain Angler’s guide service. Consistent dry fly fishing June-October.
For your next trip to Breckenridge, The Mountain Angler has a two bedroom condo available for rent. This unit features a fly fishing motif and is located two minutes by foot from our shop.
