Ok, 4490 (as is listed on the site card) worked fine. Did not try 1976. However, I did not catch any fish so maybe next time I will try the other code.
Thanks everyone. However, I’m still confused. Worse case scenario is I try both codes if necessary. I’ll report back which one(s) work.
Alex,
The code on the Site Listing card is 4490 so I really appreciate the update. I have no idea why I keep transposing “Cliff” with “Clear” – getting old is a pain. Thanks again!

Thanks very much to all of you. Extremely helpful. Hope to see you at the next stocking.
I will be there.
I did attend the stocking a couple of weeks ago and saw very specific areas of the river (where we stocked) but not the other “named” areas. Plus, it is hard to ask someone if an area you can’t see has a particular name. Maybe my best bet is to start a message thread asking the group about specific named areas of the river.
Does anyone know if there is a map depicting the areas of the river that have names. Being new to the river and the group I have no idea where areas like the “Lower Slots”, “Mountain Creek Pool”, and “S-turn” are. I’m assuming these are names that have been bestowed by fisherman over the years since I cannot find them on any publicly available map. Thanks
Much appreciated. Will definitely holler soon. Hoping to get back down early next week. The Classic I have is a Cimarron which they dont make anymore. I think it is a 2014 or so. It had only been used once and stored properly so although it is “old” it is in perfect condition. Ive done plenty of kayaking over the years but the one-man float is a new one for me. Thanks again.
I fished today also and got skunked. My buddy however caught a 22″ about 30 yards downstream from the Summit steps (prince nymph). He also caught a 10″ on a small midge but that was it for the morning. We fished Summit from 8 – 10 and Rio until about noon. Need to find those uneducated fish!
Maybe we ought to form a subset of GRTU. We could call ourselves the “Ancient Anglers” or the “Guadalupe Geriatrics”.
Never mind.
You guys are describing me perfectly. I made the mistake of promising my wife I would not fish alone and this has severely limited my fishing. So yes, I am definitely interested in finding others to fish with. I live in the Waco area but can travel anywhere, just about anytime (the beauty of retirement). Also in my 70’s but in decent shape so getting around the river is not a problem. I just joined TU and GRTU this fall and have never fished the Guad so I’m really looking forward to this season. I also will be attending the stocking event this Friday (11/15) so hopefully I can meet you guys then. Also should add that I have FF for about 10 years (late starter) and have completely fallen in love with it. I hate to think of all those years wasted playing golf (I still play though) when I could have been on a river somewhere. Had the trip of my life early this October when all three of my sons managed to get time off to fish with the old man up in Chama, NM. I have fished the northern NM/southern CO area quite a bit with a close friend but having my sons on this trip was special to say the least.
Hope to meet up with your guys soon!

Much appreciated. I will definitely plan on being there if there is any way possible. I’m very interested in the conservation aspect of fly fishing but have never been personally involved in a stocking effort. Looking forward to it!
Ok thanks. How often does stocking take place? Do you know roughly how much advance notice is provided? Coming down from Waco I might make it an overnight trip depending on the length of the day. Thanks again.
