Arkansas River Headwaters
Upper Basin: Hayden Meadows is running cold and clear, with air temps dropping well below freezing most nights. As a result, the fishing on the upper end of the river is definitely slowing down. Anglers are having better success by moving downstream for warmer water and more active insects and fish. Current temperatures are in the low 40 degree range with water flow around 88 cfs.
The U.S. House of Representatives today approved Senator Cory Gardner’s (R-CO) Outdoor Recreation Jobs and Economic Impact Act, a bipartisan bill that would inform policymakers and business leaders on the jobs created, and the consumer spending driven by, the outdoor recreation economy.
Colorado farmers and ranchers are invited to join expert presenters from Colorado State University, the Colorado Department of Agriculture and Colorado Energy Office in a series of ag-energy workshops, where attendees will be treated to a meal and an overview of energy opportunities in ag.
