Aurora Reservoir ice fishing 1/30/04
Article By: Donald Broeren, [YouNeedAuthorization].com

Aurora Reservoir has had a safe lid of ice since early January, now
about 6 inches in most areas. Rainbow trout and yellow perch are the
primary species for hard water anglers.

I have been catching trout and perch out of the same holes in 25 ft.
of water or less on small jigs tipped with mealworms, wax worms, or
small strips of sucker meat. The trout seem to prefer the mealworms
and wax worms, while the perch really love the sucker meat. The most
productive areas for me have been the eastern shoreline and Lonetree
Cove.

I highly recommend a portable fish finder or flasher, it is very
important to know what depth you are fishing and whether there are
any fish in the area. It is also important to keep moving until you
find fish, I never stay in one spot for more than 20 minutes if
I'm not seeing any fish on the sonar.

If you have any questions about fishing at Aurora Reservoir, or
fishing in Colorado, drop me a line at donald@[YouNeedAuthorization].com.
I read and reply to every email I receive from fellow anglers.
I'll see you on the water!

Aurora Reservoir is located two miles east of Gun Club Road on Quincy
Avenue in Aurora. There is a daily fee of $4 per vehicle. The park
is open from dawn to dusk.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
