Cimarron River - August 24th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
78 °
FISHING: Great
Your leader should be getting finer, your dry flies smaller to get these pounded fish. Zebra midges fished close or down deep should produce in the sloughs. I won't say brown worms (See? I didn't say it).
Look for baetis, caddis, and PMDs and fish accordingly. The clock is ticking to the end of the season, and I think the trout everywhere are beginning to sense it. So don't assume they're not eating if the normal stuff doesn't work. They just might not be eating what you're throwing, so get to work.

Cimarron River - August 11th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
87 °
FISHING: Good
Same old, same old. Expect a midday slowdown, but stay alert for afternoon fluttering bugs. Monsoon type skies are still lingering in the north state, so it may be a bit cooler than it is down here. Still, it's August, and the fish, having gotten used to the safe dark skies of late, may be skittish or punky. Try to get under some banks with nymphs or small streamers. There's a good chance there will be fish there. Or just go small ball.

Cimarron River - August 3rd, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
74 °
FISHING: Excellent
As elsewhere, the Cimarron has benefited greatly from this spate of rain. Sure, there's some water staining, nothing that a brown San Juan worm won't take care of. Times like these, I like using a very small gold beadhead larvae, with a red or bright green body, and run it straight or underneath the floatiest caddis (could pass as a spruce moth) in my box. Don't forget how deep some of those holes can be in spite of the low water; they'll hold more fish than you think they will. And remember that the Cimarron has lots of great structure, so go ahead and risk a few bugs on some possible big fish.

Cimarron River - June 9th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
90 °
FISHING: Excellent
Look for Cimarron hatches to get thicker, more complex, and more frequent. One of the state's richest streams should be popping out stones, PMDs, and the odd caddis, but crane nymphs will work too, and worms. Great time to prospect with a dry, big or small. I like the Palisades area, and I like midweek (if I can get out of this joint and go fish).

Cimarron River - May 26th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
79 °
FISHING: Excellent
Fish below Clear Creek and you'll find fish around the structure. Occasional risers make dry droppering a fun option. The only fly choice consideration that seems to matter at all is that you use a small nymph in your rig. Big stuff is working but only a fraction as well as the small. Oh, and brown worms are unbeatable.
Above the tribs, the water is very low and offers good potential for a nice day of dry fly fishing, from the Palisades on up.

Cimarron River - May 14th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
74 °
FISHING: Excellent
Water is low and fishable. Fish are fat and fishable. Lots of scuds in the water now, craneflies too and other aquatic squigglies. In other words, fish a brown worm, though I often like skittering a green caddis pupa. Do it before the crowds arrive. When they do, check out Coyote Creek below Black Lake. In the neighborhood.

Cimarron River - April 25th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
63 °
FISHING: Good
The Cimarron is producing some good fishing in the middle canyon. Though flows below the dam are now only .7cfs, the guage in Cimarron shows 60cfs so the tributaries are contributing along the way. Use scuds, San Juan Worms, cranefly larvae and stonefly nymphs for best results.

Cimarron River - March 18th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
54 °
FISHING: Excellent
Here's all you need to know: big scuds (#10), cranefly larvae, and red worms. Now's a great time to get on Cimmaroncita, when the weather's cool and the browns are stacked up. The regular river will we way low until they start releasing from Eagle Nest. Speaking of which, get ready to work the south coves of the lake as the ice melts out.

Cimarron River - October 21st, 2009
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
41 °
FISHING: Excellent
Browns are extremely active right now, and they'll fall for a medium sized streamer or the nymph. There's good flow too (25cfs), for the fall, so take advantage. Think scuds, craneflies, baetis, and caddis worms. Cimarroncita is almost closed, so if you want to get on some sweet private water, call 505-376-2376; Alan Huerta will hook you up with a special rate - 150.00 per person for one night's lodging, food, and a day and a half of fishing.

Cimarron River - September 28th, 2009
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
65 °
FISHING: Great
Look for baetis and surface action all day, though if you don't want to work that hard, prospect with your favorite dries and beadheads. You might want to cut to the chase and run a stimmy and a zebra midge or rainbow warrior. You'll catch a ton.
Lots of browns there, so beware of the clean gravel.
