Walleye
Walleye in Grand Lake, Colorado offer a unique high-altitude fishing experience. These fish thrive in the clear, cold waters, making for a challenging but rewarding pursuit. The best time to target walleye here is during the shoulder seasons – spring (May-June) and fall (September-October) – when water temperatures are cooler and the fish are more active. Focus on areas with rocky structure, drop-offs, and points. Jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows are a classic and effective presentation. Trolling crankbaits along deeper contours can also be productive. Grand Lake's clear water demands a stealthy approach. Use fluorocarbon leaders and lighter line to avoid spooking the fish. A boat is highly recommended for accessing the best walleye habitat. The public boat ramp offers convenient access. Be prepared for changing weather conditions and dress accordingly. The walleye in Grand Lake may not reach trophy sizes, but their fight in the clear, cold water is a memorable experience.
