PIC #1: Lots of nice Browns so far this year at Eleven Mile and Spinney. This beauty is from Spinney. Pic courtesy Jay

PIC #2: A couple of Pelicans at Duck Island with Mom sitting on a few eggs. Pic courtesy Jamie J and Alex the boat driver.

PIC # 3: Shore action for this young angler brought a big Pike. A few truck bed liner imprints for effect. Caught on a nightcrawler.

PIC # 4: The Tasmanian Devil not often copied and never duplicated. This unique spoon has been a mainstay here at the Mile, Spinney and Antero for years. We have a very good selection with emphasis on Pink colors but lots of other productive patterns. In addition we have packs of back up beads, or the wire hooks in both 7 and 13 gram both single and treble hook. We really like the single hook. Come check them out.

TROUT: FAIR TO GOOD: Shore action still good boat action picking up. Those on shore using Power Bait, Nightcrawlers and spawn sacs finding success. Those pitching Kastmaster, Thomas Buoyant and popping tubes doing well. Black Wooly Bugger and Black Leach have performed nicely. Boaters having a mixed bag with trollers finding luck with lead core and Pink, Arnies Dynamac, Jointed Rapala and Tas Devils in Pink on them. Bite times vary look to sunrise, midmorning, early afternoon and sundown.

KOKANEE SALMON: FAIR: Boat inspectors report one boat that came through the other day with four big Kokanee. Other than that we have not seen any but those were a good sign and caught straight out from the Marina in 60 feet of water only 10 feet down. Pink Needlefish. Also try Mack’s Wedding Rings and Kokanee Kustoms on lead core with about a 15 foot leader.

NORTHERN PIKE: FAIR: Action is picking up in the shallows on the West end and around the lake in general. Troll the shallows with the F18 Pike Pattern Rapala if you are really serious. They had cancelled that pattern a few years ago but brought it back last year. A little hard to find but we currently have some in stock. People having Pike experiences from shore meaning seeing and losing some decent fish with a few anglers scoring like in the pic above.

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.
