Rocky Mountain National Park Fishing Report

Latest Update: 5/22/2025

Current Streamflow: 65 cfs @ Moraine Park, 132 cfs @ Above Lake Estes

As highwater effects surrounding water systems, look to the park for lower flows and better clarity. Moraine Park is flowing steady so this could be a good piece of water to check out over the coming weeks. Morning nymphing and afternoon dries are the norm this time of year. Small dry dropper rigs will excel, as these fish will be cautious! Timed reservations start May 20th so be prepared if heading up this way. Stay safe and happy fishing!
