A Factual Guide On Fly Fishing Fraser River

By Paul Patterson


Angling is a sport that is quickly becoming endeared to many adventure lovers. These days, endless lines of packed RVs with baited hooks shooting into the water are a common sight along lakesides. One good way to gift your family during vacation time would be to take them for fly fishing Fraser River.

The course serves as the main offshoot of the grand Colorado. It offers a unique setting for anglers interested in both small and large scale angling. Its starting point is Berthoud Pass, from where it travels north on a 32 mile course to Granby. The waterway harbors large amounts of brown, brook, cutthroat and wild rainbow trout.

One aspect that truly makes it stand out is the way its course meanders into riffles, runs and tail outs that form deep bend pools. Depending on the time you opt to visit, you may find lots of fish. The perfect time for catching salmon is from July all through to the middle of November. March to November is always great for trout catching.

Ease of access to the waterway will be dependent on where you intend to approach from. The first 8 miles of the course as it runs north is situated on national forestland with decent tracks. As such, it is easily accessible from that point. Although the water is narrow and pretty shallow, you can still score a decent catch.

Accessibility becomes challenging as you head downstream. This is something you will notice when you get to Fraser town. Excellent angling spots can be found further downwards at the canyons near Tabernash. A mountain bike would come in handy for traversing difficult terrain.

There are several local resorts that offer full board services to guests. Most of them are located next to the water and thus offer great settings for unhindered angling. If you want to reside in a resort during your vacation, include some additional cash in your budget to cater for the angling charges that resorts often require anglers to pay.

Resorts are always alluring thanks to the exotic dishes they offer. Typical meals consist of fresh fish and an assortment of cuisines. Preparation procedures for fish include smoking, barbecuing and frying and they can also be served together with vegetable salads and French fries.

When preparing, remember to research about appropriate angling gear. Resorts usually offer equipment to visitors who do not carry theirs along. However, this may come at a fee depending on the package you choose when checking in.

Standard equipment include flies, rods, waders and reels. Most travelers who choose to go on vacation in their RVs carry theirs with them. Nonetheless, there are numerous stores that sell quality gear around. What is more, most are run by personnel who have the expertise required to tie angling flies by hand for their customers.

There is a lot to look forward to from your expedition. With ample preparation, your family should enjoy a vacation that will be forever remembered. If you have no idea where to start, the internet should offer a great platform to gather important information from.
