SOUTH PARK 6 CHALLENGE
The South Park 6 Challenge – Are You Tough Enough (or Crazy Enough) to Do It?
Alright Drifters, here’s your 2026 mission — and it’s a good one. Introducing the South Park 6 Challenge!
Your task: Catch a fish and photograph it in all six of these legendary South Park waters:
-
Tarryall Reservoir
-
Tarryall Creek
-
Spinney Reservoir
-
Antero Reservoir
-
The Dream Stream
-
Eleven Mile Canyon
The challenge kicks off January 1, 2026 and runs until December 1, 2026 — giving you a full year to prove your angling grit (and your ability to survive the unpredictable weather patterns of South Park, which can include snow, hail, and sunburn... sometimes all before lunch).
Complete all six and you’ll receive an amazing, official, real-life certificate — yes, on actual paper! Not digital, not emailed, not scribbled on a bar napkin (though we’ve all seen worse). This is a frame-worthy, brag-to-your-buddies, hang-in-your-fly-room kind of certificate.
Whether you’re chasing cutbows at Spinney, fooling browns in the canyon, or freezing your fingers off at Antero in March, the South Park 6 is all about adventure, persistence, and a few good fish stories along the way.
So grab your camera, your favorite flies, and your best “I swear it was bigger” story, and get after it. Only the truly dedicated (and mildly insane) will finish this one!
