Upper Tarryall Creek offers outstanding small stream fly fishing near Colorado Springs.  Located only 45 minutes from Colorado Springs, this unique South Park property contains five miles of Upper Tarryall Creek, and one mile of Michigan Creek. This is ideal "hopper dropper" water with plenty of brown trout ready to devour your dry fly or nymph. The river meanders through sagebrush meadows on its way to Tarryall Reservoir located just downstream of the property. Mostly a brown trout fishery with a few rainbows present, fish average 8-10 inches with an occasional 14 incher being caught. Under the right conditions, 70-100 fish days can be achieved for anglers able to make long casts and successfully stalk these spooky brown trout. The rewards are exciting as browns will explode out from undercut banks to attack terrestrials fished on the surface. If solitude, lots of water to yourself, and loads of hungry brown trout are what you are after, join us at Upper Tarryall Creek Ranch!
