Grand Lake - Fishing has been slow to fair for all species. Rainbows and Browns are being caught on small spoons and plastics in less than 20’ of water. Lake Trout are the being caught on small grubs tipped with sucker between 40’ and 80’. Staying mobile and using your electronics is the key to finding active fish.

Williams Fork - Fishing has slowed since the start of the season, but the lake trout bite remains fair to good. Best bite for lake trout is early, may have to move a few times to find fish that will bite. Small spoons such as Leach Flutter Spoon tipped with sucker has been working well. Look for rainbows and browns around the inlet area, and in water less than 15’ with best bite being at sun up and sun down.

Lake Granby - With the recent snow and inconsistent weather pattern fishing has been up and down depending on the day. Travel on the lake is good, large pressure ridge from Elephant Island to Sunset Point is still an area to avoid and is very dangerous. Rainbow and Brown trout bite has been fair for first few hours after sun up then slows dramatically. Small tubes and ice flies tipped with a wax worm will produce bites. Lake trout bite is fair and are being caught in 50’-70’ of water. Key has been to find fish that are willing to bite. Staying mobile and looking for areas that have not been pressured as heavily will help find fish that will bite. Typical baits are working such as spoons, tubes, grubs. Colors with contrast seem to be working best, dark jig head/light body or Glow head/dark body. Fishing with Bernie Guide, Dan Shannon.
