Grand County Fishing Report Week of 9/27/21

Grand Lake - Boat ramp hours are 6a-6p. All around fishing has been good for all species. Rainbows can been seen hitting the surface all around the lake until mid morning and are biting small spoons and spinners readily. Watch for the rising fish and cast in the general area. Lake trout fishing has been good throughout the day in 35-50' with small spoons being the most productive by far. Tip with sucker meat and jig the bottom. Some fish have been more responsive to aggressive jigging 2-3' off the bottom and tight lined back to the bottom. If they are not being aggressive then slow things way down and jig 2-3" off the bottom. Water temps are cooling off and have been in the mid-high 50s. With over night lows staying in the 30s water temps should be dropping steadily.  - Fishing with Bernie Guide, Rhett Feltman

Williams Fork - Boat ramps closed. Hand launch only.

Lake Granby - Boat ramp hours are 6a-6p. Fishing is picking up for all species as water temps cool. Rainbows and browns are active during the low light hours. Target shallow bays and use small crankbaits or rainbow colored spinners retrieved very slow. Lake trout bite has been best first thing in the morning and tapers off as day goes on. Look for fish in 40-70 ft of water, spoons or tubes in glow colors tipped with sucker are producing strikes. Water level is consistently dropping each day. Use caution traveling around the lake, may be submerged hazards that aren’t marked. — Fishing with Bernie Guide, Dan Shannon
