Northern Pike
Pueblo Reservoir is a hidden gem for Northern Pike fishing in Colorado. While not as well-known as some other pike fisheries in the state, Pueblo holds some surprisingly large fish, thanks to the abundant forage and diverse habitat. Spring is the peak season as pike move into shallower water to spawn. Look for weedy bays and submerged timber. Large swimbaits, spoons, and jerkbaits are effective lures. The Arkansas River inlet area can be productive in the spring. Be sure to use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs, as pike have razor-sharp teeth. A sturdy rod and reel are also essential for handling these powerful predators. Remember to handle pike carefully during catch and release to ensure their survival.
