Yeah my uncle told me the good spots to fish
By the way, if anyone wanted to fish on the river and doesnt happen to have private property on the river i suggest going to Creede Colorado about a 6 hour drive from denver east of alamosa and seeking out the mountain man outfitters theyll give you a good trip
