Seasonal Activity Chart
Walleye
Walleye anglers visiting Montrose should set their sights on Ridgway Reservoir. This scenic reservoir offers the best walleye fishing in the immediate area. Spring and fall are the peak seasons, as walleye move shallower to spawn or feed aggressively before winter. Trolling crankbaits along the dam face and rocky points is a popular and effective technique. Jigging with minnow-imitating plastics can also produce good results, particularly near submerged structure. The walleye population in Ridgway is maintained through stocking efforts, so size and numbers can vary from year to year. Local tip: Pay attention to the thermocline, as walleye will often congregate near it. Also, be prepared for changing weather conditions, as the high-altitude environment can be unpredictable. Check the Colorado Parks and Wildlife fishing report for the latest stocking information and fishing conditions before you go.
