Congrats to Our Summer Raffle Winner

Marty Jones was the winner of our Summer Raffle featuring three great fishing trips for two anglers- a float trip on the Arkansas, a float down the Colorado, and a walk/wade trip on the Upper Gunnison. A very big thank you goes to everyone who purchased tickets and to the outfitters who donated these great trips! We appreciate your continued support!

Arkansas River float trip:  a full day float for two on one of Colorado's newest Gold Medal waters, the Arkansas River.  This trip with Dvorak Expeditions will take you through one of Colorado's most-loved brown trout fisheries, and includes lunch and beverage.  Dvorak was Colorado's first licensed outfitter and is well known for his outstanding fishing and rafting trips on the Arkansas, Gunnison, Colorado and other regional rivers.  Learn more at the Dvorak Expeditions website.

Colorado River float trip:  a full day float trip for two on the "lower Upper" Colorado River, above Dotsero.  This float trip is with Jack Bombardier and Confluence Casting, who lives alongside the river and loves to share his "home waters" with new and returning visitors. Jack will take you on the Colorado River as it flows through one of the most colorful and beautiful canyons anywhere. On a typical float you might see bighorn sheep, eagles, dinosaur tracks, waterfalls and course lots of feisty trout. Best of all, since this section sees very little river traffic,there a good chance you 'll have it to yourselves!  Learn more at the Confluence Casting website.

 

Upper Gunnison River walk/wade trip:  a full day walk/wade trip for two on public water in the upper Gunnison basin, operating from Three Rivers Resort in Almont with Willowfly Anglers, in the heart of one of Colorado's great fishing meccas picking up world-class angling options with the Gunnison, East, and Taylor Rivers.  Operating for over 30 years, Willowfly offers experienced fly fishing guides, excellent private water options (available for an additional fee), as well as a full service fly fishing shop. Willowfly Anglers is the only Orvis Endorsed Outfitter in the Almont area and was recently named one of the top five Orvis Endorsed Outfitters in North America.  Learn more at the Three Rivers Resort website.
