Heading there on the July 3rd and staying a few days looking to do some fly fishing.

Never been there and I’m looking to give it a go. Anyone know any rivers or streams to go too??
 
I lived in the Springs for 3 years...most good water is in the mountains. Check out Angler's Covey fly-shop in Colorado Springs, they will point you in the right direction.
Check out Skagway Reservoir near Cripple Creek; its a bit of a drive from CS, however a small creek flows out from it, not very wide, maybe 15' feet in width. The fish aren't big, although you might find a decent fish on occasion. Hike back a bit and you'll find some water that isn't fished too hard. I used an Amy's Ant and had a blast. 3WT is all you'll need. I believe it's called Beaver Creek. Hope this helps!
