Cheesman Canyon: South Platte River During A Spring Storm

Snow flakes fall as fish rise to BWO's on the South Platte River in Cheesman Canyon. These wary, wild fish prefer to feed under the cover of overcast skies. The biggest fish live under the giant boulders and rarely show themselves, how ever will venture out with cloud cover, a heavy hatch, increased flows, and in holes that receive less pressure (Good luck finding those hole anymore!). But, if you are willing to hike through the snow into the heart of the canyon; over and around boulders, and make some daring casts, you might be rewarded.
