Walleye
Central Colorado might not be the first place that comes to mind for walleye, but several reservoirs tucked into the mountains offer surprisingly good fishing. Look to Spinney Mountain Reservoir and Elevenmile Reservoir in South Park for some of the best opportunities. These high-elevation reservoirs experience ice-over in winter, so the open-water season, from late spring through fall, is prime time. Spring, just after ice-off, can be especially productive as walleye move shallow to spawn. Jigging with brightly colored lures or trolling crankbaits along submerged structure are popular tactics. Be aware that these reservoirs can experience rapidly changing weather conditions, so check the forecast before you head out. Also, Spinney Mountain often has specific regulations regarding boat types and hours, so be sure to check those before launching. The walleye in these reservoirs tend to be well-fed due to the abundant forage, so don't be afraid to upsize your presentations.
