Grand Lake - With the snow has brought on some slush in areas. Fishing has been pretty typical for end of February, we are having to work for our bites but this should be improving as we get to March. Rainbow, brown trout and the occasional kokanee are being caught in 20’ and less of water, the inlet areas being most productive. Small pink or white ice flies and tungsten jigs tipped with an egg or wax worm has been a go to. Lake trout are starting to suspend over the deeper water, use electronics to find fish then fish to their depths with spoons and tubes.—-Fishing with Bernie Guide, Dan Shannon
Williams Fork - Lake conditions are still friendly for walking with a few inches of snow and no slush. Fishing has been best for the first few hours of the morning until the wind has been picking up. Later in the day we have had to play cat and mouse for several minutes to get fish to bite, big or small. Fish have still been active through the water column and are willing to chase but getting them to close the deal has been tricky. —- Fishing with Bernie Guide, Rhett Feltman
Lake Granby - This week has brought us snow and slush on the lake, while the slush is not to the same extent as the past few years it is spreading and being found throughout the lake. Use caution and be prepared while traveling the lake. Fishing picked up this week for all species. Rainbows are active shallow, less than 12’ and spoons were producing well. Lake trout are being caught in 40-80’ as well as finding a few suspended. While still catching most along the bottom they have been chasing spoons and tubes around the water column as well when they don’t bite right away. This time of year using electronics is key to finding fish as they are spread throughout the lake. —-Fishing with Bernie Guide, Dan Shannon
