Fishing

​The Roaring Fork Valley offers some of the finest fly fishing in Colorado.  Between the Crystal River, Roaring Fork River, The Colorado, and the Frying Pan - there are plenty of wonderful areas for you to enjoy the serenity of the outdoors.

Fishing is also available all year long so if you want a break from the slopes, call a local guide to get you on the water.

Below are resources for fishing reports, guides, and angler shops in the Valley.

Marble/Carbondale:
The beautiful Crystal River, known as one of the favorite fly fishing destinations in Colorado, springs forth from the mountains just above Marble and flows through town and down through Redstone until it joins the Roaring Fork River below Carbondale. The Crystal is home to wild populations of German brown, rainbow, cutthroat, and brook trout, as well as big schools of mountain whitefish. On public stretches of the Crystal between Redstone and Marble, the Colorado Division of Wildlife regularly stocks the river with catchable-size rainbow and cutthroat trout.
