Upper Colorado River - Hot Sulpher Springs to Parshall
The Upper Colorado River below Windy Gap is rated as Gold Medal water. Since the advent of whirling disease the river has become mostly a brown trout fishery, with occasion large rainbows caught as you move downstream.<br><br>
While this is Gold Medal Water larger fish will usually be found on the Frying Pan, Roaring Fork, South Platte, or Taylor Rivers. In the last couple of years however it appears to me that the average size of the fish has been increasing.<br><br>
Most of the surrounding area is ranch land with the exception of Byers Canyon.
