Walleye
If you're heading to Boone, Colorado, for walleye, you'll be targeting them in the high-country reservoirs that dot the landscape. Spring and fall are prime times. As the water warms in spring, walleye move shallower to spawn, making them accessible from shore or small boats. In the fall, they aggressively feed to bulk up for winter. Consider Pueblo Reservoir as a solid option. It offers good walleye habitat and consistent fishing. A local tip: Pay attention to water levels. Low water can concentrate fish near structure. Also, be prepared for sudden weather changes in the mountains; layers are key. The walleye here aren't known for immense size, but the scenery is spectacular, and a limit of tasty walleye makes for a memorable trip. Jigging and trolling are effective methods, and don't be afraid to experiment with different depths until you find where the fish are holding.
