Whether you’re fly-fishing or have a night crawler on the end of your line, you can find many different species of fish throughout Grand County. Rainbow, cutthroat, brown & brook trout can be found in most of the rivers, while mackinaw and kokanee salmon cruise the depths of the larger bodies of water. The Colorado River offers gold medal trout fishing with some of the biggest browns and rainbows found in the state.

St. Louis Creek and Willow Creek offer brookies, bows and browns with scattered creek-side campgrounds.
