Striped Bass
While Colorado Springs might not be the first place that comes to mind for striped bass, a few reservoirs in the region offer surprisingly good striper fishing. Pueblo Reservoir, about an hour south, is a prime destination. The best time to target these fish is during the spring and fall turnover when the water temperatures are more consistent throughout the water column. Look for stripers schooling near the dam or chasing baitfish in the open water. Downriggers are highly effective for presenting lures at the depths where stripers are holding. A local tip: check the Pueblo Reservoir water level before you go, as low water can impact boat ramp access. Also, be prepared for windy conditions, which are common in this area.
