Largemouth Bass
The area around Gilcrest, Colorado, offers decent largemouth bass fishing in a variety of smaller lakes, ponds, and sections of the South Platte River. While you won't find trophy-sized bass in every location, there are plenty of opportunities to catch numbers of fish. Look for bass around structure like submerged vegetation, fallen trees, and rocky points. Spring and fall are the best times to target bass, as they are more active during these periods. Topwater lures, crankbaits, and soft plastics are all effective baits. A key tip is to focus on areas with clear water, as bass tend to be more sight-oriented predators. The South Platte River also holds some bass, especially in slower-moving sections and backwaters. Be aware of irrigation diversions and fluctuating water levels in the river. Always check local regulations and obtain the necessary licenses before fishing. Some ponds may be on private land, so respect property boundaries and seek permission when necessary.
