Colorado Parks & Wildlife
The Blue River below Dillon Reservoir through Silverthorne is a Gold Medal tailwater fishery that produces exceptional rainbow and brown trout fishing in an easily accessible setting. The cold, clear releases from Dillon Dam maintain ideal water temperatures year-round, supporting a dense population of large trout. Midge and small nymph patterns dominate, and the river is a favorite of Front Range anglers for its proximity and quality.
