About this water

Bighorn Sheep Canyon on the Arkansas River is a Gold Medal fishery offering outstanding wade fishing for wild brown and rainbow trout in a dramatic canyon setting between Salida and Canon City. The river here is characterized by riffles, runs, and deep pools that hold large trout year-round. Stonefly, caddis, and midge patterns are highly effective throughout the season.
