Colorado Fly Fishing - Small CREEK Trout Fishing

Fly Fishing small creeks and small Mountain Trout Streams in Colorado. Angler John Bocchino's longtime knowledge of local small streams and Colorado summer hatches made for a fun adventure to catch beautiful, small trout on dry flies.

On my summer trips to Colorado, I've spent more time fly fishing the small back country streams than I have the larger, and more popular, larger streams and rivers. This video captures that experience very well.

Oh my, how I wish I were there. Just to enjoy the out doors. Go fly fishing and for super have trout, pork-n-beans with fried potatoes and a couple slices of white bread. That would be my meal of a life time. Set there afterwards with a cold glass of tea and watch the water go by. Your a very blessed man to get to do what you do. That is most men’s dream of doing but you live it. Now that I am suffering with cancer I depend on you to film the experiences I want to live. Thank you for the video. You have no idea what it means to me to watch it.

These videos perfectly illustrate the core of fly fishing. Whether you caught a fish or not in this amazing looking location it wouldn't matter. But the odd one to the net makes life more manageable.

Small trout are great and often the sight fishing is a key part of learning about fly fishing and trout in general. Thanks

I also love fishing small streams. In fact it’s my favorite way to fish. I love the peace and serenity they offer. For trout I usually fish the small streams of the Driftless or actually small streams for bass close by my house.

I've been a musician since the early 70s and am still very passionate about it. Started fly fishing in the early 90s and I love that too. I've always thought that music and fly fishing are linked somehow. they go together really well. Anyway nice video I enjoyed watching it very much.

This is awesome because my son and I just got done fishing the Yampa and Elk rivers, along with a bunch of other small tributaries. Perfect timing for this video.

Holy cow! I came to Colorado from upstate NY as well! Just stumbled upon this video doing a lot of fly fishing research on small mtn streams to hit next. Great content!

Such a nice find here! I guess now I may be viewed as an 'old timer' yet I grew up with a father who was a fanatical small stream fly-fisherman. Years of trying to keep up with him on brushy creeks, (when young often crying thinking he left me behind) and exploring almost every single river in Colorado numerous times. Learning the biomes of these small streams is a rich joy & developing the skill & intuitions to fish effectively was something my father gifted to me, although I needed to be an adult to fully appreciate it. I like may have a favorite place that I will never share where I can catch 70+ fish in a day (all released) of fishing a wild water with not a single sign that other humans exist. Such a special treasure that I hope remains with the coming pressures of development & population growth. Thanks for the great video that brings back a flood of wonderful memories for me as I sit housebound under quarantine rules in distant Ethiopia. The wild streams & flyfishing are about all I miss about home these days.

I love my small Colorado streams. Sometimes the fish can be suprisingly large.

Badass man! Got me a greenback cutthroat a few days ago and put it back. Re starting my love for fishing

[richardspurrier]

Your video is way too good! I am a Colorado boy born and raised. Before work forced me to Vegas I worked at Anglers ALL in Littleton. As God as my witness...I envy what you do! People you to ask me what I was doing on my days off. I would laugh and tell them I will let you know when I get back. Thank you.. The Artful Angler.

Thanx for bringing light into this dark times...🙏

This is so strange, I live in cooperstown ny, and in the past 2 years I have really fell in love with fly fishing, and like you said, I also appreciate the small trout, idk if it’s also because I’ve enjoyed fishing small streams for Brook trout aswell, but also I’m going to Colorado for college near the gunnison, and plan to live there, so ironic, love the vid btw❤😂

I’m from New Zealand, that’s some nice fishing and scenery. Thanks.

[andrewmaunders]

Beautifully done. Thanks from "Blood of Christ" mountains here in New mexico. That was a feast for the eyes !{and ears}.

The Brown trouts colouring is absolutely stunning.

This one spoke to my soul... John, if you're reading this I dig your style, gonna have to hire you for a day to kick it and enjoy some small streams together.
