Lately the Animas has been fishing decent from about 10 to 3. Sculpin patterns (streamers) seem to be the ticket although we have seen midges are coming off and, as the weather continues to moderate, we should see more fish looking up. Look for days with moderating temps and get out there before the low…
Fishing Report Courtesy Of Duranglers Guide Spencer Schreiber Conditions on the Animas River are more favorable for fishing than they normally are through the cold month of January. It is definitely winter in the Durango area, but we are not seeing the really cold nights that can turn the river into something…
THANK YOU Duranglers would like to offer a special thanks and wishes for tight lines to everyone who shopped and fished…

It has a very healthy population of Trout (Rainbows & Browns), riffles, pools, long glides, small fish, big fish, remote canyons as well as good road access. Recently the Colorado Division of Wildlife…
