Latest Update: 8/21/2025
Current Streamflow : 47 cfs @ Big T Above Lake Estes, 55 cfs @ Big T Below Lake Estes, 18 cfs @ Moraine Park
This piece of water is seeing some great dry fly action. Single PMD Patterns can be a thing of beauty on the Big T (look for riffles) when it allows and that is now! Caddis will also be on the menu.
Hopper dropper rigs have been productive in the morning using small stonefly and hopper dries with a PMD, caddis, or midge below is a great place to start.
