PIC # 3: The Drew pic!. Courtesy Drew

TROUT: GOOD: Anglers in boats are seeing very good results trolling, pitching, working flies and drifting bait. As the water warms activity will continue to improve. Rapala’s are an early Spring bait and are always good here and are yielding big fish. We like the jointed ones but many patterns are effective Trolling has really picked up with many offerings doing well. Rainbow Pop Gear trailing with a crawler. Tequila Sunrise #5 and Pink Panther #55 in 13 gram on a lead core rig doing great. Arnies Dynamac Trolling Spoon in red, orange or chartreuse depending on the time of the day. Lead core presentations have done really well. Stop in we will show you what we mean. Rapala’s doing really well worked on a down rigger in deeper water.

KOKANEE SALMON:FAIR: Anglers hunting salmon are starting to see improved action although still far from what we look forward to.. Fish like the big one in pic above have been caught by others but generally just one or two and stories of the ones that got away. Look to deeper water with fish suspended 25 to 40 feet down. Sling Blades and Dodgers on lead core trailed by a variety of Macks offerings as well as Kokanee Kustoms tipped with one kernal of corn or Berkley Maggots. Also the Pro Troll Kokanee Killer in pink or red have also seen some action. Those big ones fight like no other and lots of fun.

NORTHERN PIKE: FAIR:: Staring to see some fish. The fish we have caught have been small. Action is improving still looking for warmer water.

SPECIAL NOTE: 11 Mile Marina is located at the North Shore in Eleven Mile State Park, Lake George Colorado. A CPW Park Pass is required on all vehicles entering the Park. Any fees for Guide/Outfitter/Rental services do not include Park fees, CO fishing license or gratuities.
