We are lucky to live so close to such a great fishery. The power plant on the west end of Lake Estes provides clear water all year and never freezes in the winter. The water is comfortably cool now so wet wading is feasible. The brown trout that feed in the outflow range from small to trophy so take each strike seriously. My favorite fly this time of year is still the flying ant but a parachute Adams works too. Just skate or skitter the fly across the surface a few inches to get their attention. 
Lake Haiyaha is a deep lake surrounded by huge boulders. Wading here is not an option but that’s ok because most of the Yellowstone Cutthroat trout found here are right along the shore. This lake is one of many featured lakes in the Second Edition of “Angler’s Guide to Rocky Mountain National Park.
There’s some really good fishing right in Estes Park. Lake Estes has a resident population of brown trout feeding on terrestrial patterns right at sunset along the shore. Try it, you’ll like it. We tell you how in “Angler’s Guide to Rocky Mountain National Park”.
Here’s a spectacular view with The Loch below. You’ll see this view on the way to Lake of Glass and Sky Pond. Read about fishing our favorite lakes and catching big trout along the shore in “Angler’s Guide to Rocky Mountain National Park- Second Edition”.
