“Great property. Hooked into a good number of 16-18in Browns and Rainbows in the riffles. Great property, landowner was friendly and helpful.”

This ranch provides 1 mile of fly fishing access on Tarryall Creek just outside of Jefferson, Colorado. The scenery in all directions and the wildlife are spectacular. Water access is flat and moderately easy, however, you will need to walk through a cow pasture that can have some ruts and holes from the cows. Anglers can expect to net browns and rainbows in the 8-14″ range. This property is prime for double dries and hopper-dropper setups. Along the creek, there are a few willows that allow shade and underwater structures for fish to hold. Pay attention to your back cast as you target waiting fish. A bow and arrow or roll cast are great to have in your pocket at this fishery.
Recommended Rods: 2 – 4 wt rods, 7′ – 8’6″ length.

Fishing Hours: Sunrise to Sunset

September 1, 2023 at 9:54 amI just spent the day on this property, and it was fantastic. The fishing was all single dry using a 3/4wt rod. The creek itself is full of brown trout, and some places are easier to cast to than others, making it a fun technical creek where you are rewarded with every cast you can get in front of a fish. The scenery is very isolated besides the ranch house you drive by to access the property, where you will be greeted by friendly dogs or horses. If you enjoy fishing technical creeks with lighter tackle, this is the place for you.

August 25, 2023 at 5:07 pmIf you looking for creek fishing and some nice fish this is a good place.There were lots of nice brown trout and not many willows. Lots of bends and the water level was good. I was using a 8′ 1 weigh fly rod. The length was good but I think a three weight would be better. The sign with the ranch name was missing and some of the signs to the parking area were down. I followed the signs to a parking area but it didn’t match the directions. The directions with the attached map have be to a parking area next to the campsite and a 400 yard hike to the creek. The signs lead me to a short hike to the creek. It probably requires high clearance vehicle. It’s in a cow pasture so watch your step. I had a great time and saw lots of wildlife.
