Fish and Baits

In Hinsdale County, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

How to Read the Water

Before leaving this local, open reservoir in Hinsdale County, start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it.

Season by Season

In Hinsdale County, 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 small depth change can be more useful than a long move.

A Simple Tackle Plan

At Lost Lakes in Hinsdale 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.

After choosing a bank on this local, open reservoir in Hinsdale 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.
