Here is your Grand County fishing report for the week of 3-2-20. The warm weather and the wind has firmed up the lakes, which has helped the slush problem. The weather has been awesome, don't forget your sunscreen.
Lake Granby- Lake trout have been active in 50-90' of water. They are suspending over very deep water(150'). The oxygen is dissipating in the basin which is pushing the lakers into shallower water. This is a tough bite to find. If you find it they will chase spoons, tubes and twisters. Rainbows and browns are eating small jigs in less then 10' of water very early in the morning.
Grand Lake 3/8/2020 - Spring conditions on the ice are here, its been warm and the sun has done a great job of making that snow and slush start to go away. Still some slush, but travel conditions have improved. Fishing for Rainbows and Browns is the most consistent bite. Catching fish in less than 20ft of water on small spoons (My favorite has been Clam Jointed Pinhead) in pink or silver tipped with wax worm or butter worm. Lake trout are moving to spring suspended locations, the bite has been fair at best. When chasing lake trout right now electronics are a must! Lures that have been producing are spoons and small minnow imitations worked throughout the entire water column. Move often and change lures if you are not getting bit. It feels like spring and its been sunny and warm out, don’t forget your sunscreen! - Dan Shannon-- Guide – Fishing with Bernie
Slush has mostly cleared up on the lake however there are still slushy spots on the lake to look out for. Lake trout are being caught in 50 to 70 feet of water on small 1 to 3 inch plastics tipped with sucker meat. Bite has been fair to good in the morning and normally dies off sometime around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. Concentrations of fish are being found around structure such as points, drop offs and humps. Most fish are being caught on or near the bottom.
