Fish and Baits

When fishing this local, open reservoir in Garfield County, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

While learning this local, open reservoir in Garfield County, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.

How to Read the Water

Before changing spots on this local, open reservoir in Garfield County, make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.

Season by Season

To narrow the search, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a light depth change can be more useful than a long shift.

A Simple Tackle Plan

In Garfield County, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.

While checking this local, open reservoir in Garfield County, record the wind, water color, productive depth, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
