Boulder Flycasters - Trout Unlimited Chapter
The Boulder Flycasters is a non-profit volunteer organization that is dedicated to improving Boulder County's fishing habitats. Everyone is invited and encouraged to attend any of our meetings to learn more and maybe exchange fishing stories, too. Don't forget to sign up for our newsletter or visit our Blog where you can keep up daily with activities surrounding the Boulder Flycasters.
Boulder Creek Map & Angling Guide
The first printing of the 12 page color map and guide, which includes all of Middle Boulder Creek drainage from the Continental Divide down to 55th Street is now available. Click on the image above to view a larger photo.
It includes all high lakes, trailheads and mileage to each lake and also shows you where the private land begins and ends. There is an extensive double page spread showing all the creek from Barker Dam through the Boulder Creek path and most of the pullouts and parking areas along that stretch.
Additionally, we have included three sections of the South Boulder Creek drainage from the Continental Divide down to Baseline Road. Each section shows lakes and the creek reaches with mileage and trailhead parking areas. There are notations showing private property and access points for anglers.
Of special interest is the Walker Ranch section showing both the overall view of the angling accesses below Gross Reservoir and an exploded, detailed view of the most important angling accesses. The lower section of South Boulder Creek shows the public and private sections of creek access all the way down to Baseline Road and the mileage covered by the trails following the creek.
The guide may be purchased at local area fly shops, McGuckin Hardware, the Boulder Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Boulder Map Gallery. For you out-of-staters, it may also be ordered directly from Boulder Flycasters.
Fall Trip on the Taylor River
The BFC has made special arrangements for accomodations at Harmel's Ranch on the Taylor River for September 11 & 12 (an additional 2 days can be arranged). The special price is $285 for fishing, lodging (on the river), breakfast, and dinner....that's 55% to 65% off regular season rates at the most beautiful time of year. There are limited spots available - first come/first serve. Supporting members were notified a week ago and the available spots are decreasing rapidly. If interested, reserve your space now.
2010 CTU Fly Fishing Youth Camp
The CTU River Conservation and Fly Fishing Youth Camp is a week-long experience that introduces students to the principles of science-based conservation and the fine arts df fly fishing and fly tying. Twenty 14 to 18 year old campers recommended by TU Chapters across Colorado and accepted by CTU will spend time on science based conservation and the arts of fly fishing and fly tying. This year the camp will be held June 6-11 at Peace Ranch in Basalt.

BFC Fishing Buddies on Facebook
Many memebers have commented recently they would like to link up with other members for fishing. We have therefore created a BFC Fishing Buddies Page on Facebook for those of you who would like to link up with other members. This is a private facebook page by invitation only, so only BFC members and friends can join. Please logon to Facebook to join your fellow flyfishers for trips and tall stories!
