Colorado Division of Wildlife’s weekly fishing report — Aug. 31, 2010

Prime fishing days are finally upon us! September brings a welcomed reprieve from the dog days of summer in Colorado. The weather starts to cool, fish activity increases, the crowds will decrease and the change from summer to autumn makes the scenery nothing short of spectacular.

During the past week, we have had no discernable rain and a bit cooler weather. The skies have been sunny and there has been little wind. The best time to fish has been early morning.

Blue Mesa Reservoir is Colorado’s largest body of water. The reservoir, when full, is 19 miles long and has over 90 miles of shoreline. Blue Mesa is known for having big fish and for having the largest kokanee salmon fishery in the United States.

Fly-fishing good from Bull Shoals to Rim Shoals

During the past week, we have had no discernible rain and a bit cooler temperatures (it was still in the 90s). The skies have been sunny and there has been little wind. With the high weather we have been receiving, the best time to fish has been early morning. Wet-wading has been the way to go, and do not forget to drink plenty of water.

This is the time of year where fishing becomes more of a leisurely activity, especially during the heat of an August afternoon. A good strategy is to throw your line in the water, grab a good book, sit back and relax.

Wildcat Shoals, Dry Run Creek are hot areas for fly fishing

During the past week, we have had a minor rain, ever hotter temperatures — to include heat advisories — and high humidity. The skies have been sunny, and there has been little wind.
