How to Read the Water

Before changing spots on this small, open reservoir in Teller County, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.

Season by Season

A Simple Tackle Plan

On the 16-acre reservoir in Teller 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.
