River Use

Knowing the Yampa River stream flows and proper river safety techniques is an important part of having a rewarding and safe experience on the Yampa River.

Fishing on the Yampa River is some of the best. With a variety of species including rainbow and brown trout found from the headwaters to the Yampa River State Park headquarters, to sport fishing species like Northern Pike and small mouth bass found from Craig to the confluence of the Green River, there is always something biting.
