Cimarron River - June 2nd, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
76 °
FISHING: Excellent
I like small and heavy nymphs under floaty dries or low profile indicators. Big crane larvae are also performing well. The Cimarron is in wonderful shape (amazing what a little water will do), and the browns are nice and fat. Caddis nymphs will do nicely in the riffles. If the wind would knock it off, you will find random surface feeding, though be prepared for the fish to focus some on PMDs and pine moths.

Cimarron River - May 20th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
66 °
FISHING: Great
Holding steady at awesome. They're on the bite. Only thing to actually do is change your game a little bit if they're NOT biting. Go smaller, finer. I bet the one thing you can to that will have the most impact is to check your approach. Are you walking too tall? Should you be on your knees? Are you scoping a pool/run for sentry fish on the shallow margins and tailouts? The Cimarron is famous for huge fish populations, also for those nuisance fish that see you coming from a ways off, then blow the whistle on you before you can even cast. Small mayfly patterns won't let you down, cripples on top.

Cimarron River - May 11th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
70 °
FISHING: Excellent
Try, well, anything, and I bet it will work, though I'd feel a little necked without worms, scuds (a small hare's ear will do double duty), and baetis. Small buggers in cover will give you a good shot at bigger trout, especially near the snakenecks and Palisades.

Cimarron River - April 28th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
71 °
FISHING: Excellent
Baetis, scuds, cranes, and brown worms. Period, though I would try a hopper for giggles. This is the funnest time of year to fish the Cimarron in my opinion. Try to lose some flies in the beaver pond area, casting toward the banks and dropping deep to maybe get a big one. Cimarroncita is, of course, off the charts good.

Cimarron River - October 21st, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
67 °
FISHING: Great
They'll turn off the spigot any day now, or so we should assume, so get your butts up there for some bwo action. I'd also have a couple small streamers in my box in case I wanted to surprise one of the creeks bigger browns. Those scrub oaks and cottonwoods should be nice and colored up for a while, so at least it will be pretty. Purple prince, and prince charmings are good general choices, and graphic and swing caddis pupae.

Cimarron River - September 30th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
77 °
FISHING: Excellent
Double dry with a tiny behind. Drop a small bead emerger too, and if you get your fill of sweet fishing in the canyon, hop over to Eagle Nest and work the bays with midge emergers and clousers. Some biggies coming out of the lake.

Cimarron River - September 16th, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
82 °
FISHING: Excellent
I qualify by saying that the Cimarron has thrown up some goose eggs lately, where fish have decided to take a day off here and there. Nothing to do about that. If you're not spooking fish on this extremely productive stream, they're probably taking a time out - bad fishy! When it's on, small nymphs behind the smallest dry you can get away with (that won't be pulled under by the weight of the nymph) work best. A concealed approach helps too, and longish casts with a small bump mend as it falls to the water.

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.
