Annual Superfly Contest scheduled for Aug. 21-22 has been cancelled

The Gunnison Angling Society (GAS), the local chapter of Trout Unlimited, has cancelled its Annual Superfly Contest scheduled for Aug. 21-22. The event was cancelled due to the severe drought levels the Gunnison watershed is currently experiencing, resulting in abnormally low river and stream flows. When stream flow drops, rivers warm more quickly. Warmer water holds less dissolved oxygen, making conditions harder for fish and other aquatic life to survive. Low flows also reduce the ability of a stream to buffer heat and support a healthy aquatic habitat during the hottest part of the year. GSA looks forward to continuing this annual event in the summer of 2027. For further information on this event and scheduling for 2027 see: https://www.gunnisonanglingsociety.org/Superfly-2026  

Thank-you for your support and look forward to seeing you at the 2027 Superfly.
