Sold! Yampa TailWaters Preserve: Legacy Fishing Retreat

January 25th, 2012

Congratulations to Alex Maher, Brian Hartley and Ben Pierce for the closing of this Colorado ranch! Yampa TailWaters Preserve is a legacy fishing retreat offering arguably, the single best, private tailwater fishery in North America given its year-round fishing season. Large rainbow and brown trout migrate up 128 miles of the undammed Yampa River to spawn and reside in this first mile and three quarters of tailwaters below Catamount Dam. The 514-acre ranch is ideally situated in the heart of the amenity-rich splendor of the famed resort valley of Steamboat Springs. With nutrient rich water teeming with trophy trout, this rare offering combines one of the premier fisheries in the country with quiet, peaceful seclusion as well as exceptional accessibility. Yampa TailWaters Preserve boasts approximately a mile and three quarters of both sides of the Yampa River with completely private wild trout fishing that is consistently good in fall, winter, spring and summer. » More: Sold!
