South Platte River Fishing Map – Colorado

Fish smarter, not harder.

This detailed South Platte River Fishing Map was created by local anglers who know the river firsthand—because they’ve spent decades fishing, wading, and exploring one of Colorado’s most diverse and heavily pressured trout fisheries.

Covering the South Platte River from Fairplay downstream to Roxborough State Park, this map clearly shows where you can legally access and fish the river across high-elevation meadow water, canyon stretches, and classic Front Range tailwaters. Public lands and access points are presented in a clean, easy-to-read format designed for real use on the water.

Featured Sections Included:

• The Dream Stream within the Charlie Meyers State Wildlife Area – iconic meadow water between Spinney and Elevenmile

• Elevenmile Canyon – controlled tailwater with deep runs and technical fishing

• Cheesman Canyon – world-famous canyon section with limited access and strict land-ownership boundaries

• Deckers – one of the most popular and productive stretches on the Front Range

Each of these sections is clearly identified with access points, walk-in areas, and parking locations to help anglers navigate this complex river system efficiently and legally.

What’s Included:

• Clearly marked public lands, including federal, state, county, and city ownership

• Public fishing access points along the South Platte River and its major sections

• River miles, bridges, and key reference points

• Trails and walk-in access areas

• Parking locations not found on other maps, identified through local knowledge

• High-resolution cartography designed for outdoor navigation and trip planning

Why Anglers Love It:

Unlike generic fishing maps, this map focuses on access areas and land-ownership clarity, so you know exactly where you’re allowed to be—without confusion, clutter, or guesswork. This is especially critical on the South Platte, where regulations, pressure, and mixed ownership demand precise information. The added parking data helps anglers spread out and avoid congestion in heavily fished sections.

Available Formats:

• Folded Paper Map – 15x12" unfolded, 3x6" folded pocket guide, ideal for fly shops, travel, and glove boxes

• GPS Mobile Map – Compatible with Avenza Maps for offline navigation

Whether you’re stalking trout on the Dream Stream, hiking into Cheesman Canyon, or fishing classic runs at Deckers, this map helps you spend less time searching for access—and more time fishing.
