“Staring Down the Barrel of the Gunnison”

Producer: FLY ALL SZN

“Staring down the barrel of the Gunnison. There’s only one way the water flows folks..

Extreme is the only way to describe the conditions this world-renowned river has to offer. Between the fly fishing and the hiking you are tested well beyond your limits at every bend. But that is exactly what creates an unforgettable memory that you can carry with you for a lifetime.

From its headwaters high up in the Rocky Mountains to where it dumps into the Colorado River, this famous river has earned its reputation. The Gunnison River offers up some of the best fly fishing in the entire Western United States. This video is proof enough.

This is a massive watershed that takes on different characteristics the further it flows. The Black Canyon of the Gunnison is where we were today. This section is what makes a river like this so appealing to the most extreme of fly anglers. The National Park allows for access to both the North and South rim of the Black Canyon. “Access” is used as loosely as the crumbling routes used to get down to the Gunnison. It is not easy to get in and its even harder to get out. But if you are willing and able you can be rewarded with some of the biggest fish of your life.”
