Nee Noshe, Nee Granda

[Guest]

Has anyone ever tried out these lakes? The lakers have been giving me a hard time I'm thinking about spending more time seeking out wiper and walleye hot spots. My brother and I were sitting on af park bench pittn what we were going to do next just as fast as we can.

I've fished those lakes a lot in past years, although the low water kept me away last year and I haven't been out yet this Spring. I understand NeeNoshe is very, very low and the the boat ramps are marginal. Supposedly NeeGronde has more water and the private ramp at Cottonwood Park is reported to be ok for bigger boats. I've sure caugtht a lot of fish from those lakes. I'd sure go give 'em a shot.

My bro & me are takin the belly boats to nee noshe on wednesday the 26th.Figure since trere arent many boats the fishin should be good.These lakes are tough to fish from shore,almost impossible.If we catch it right the fishing will be awesome,if not-that's fishin.

Got to nee noshe @8pm tues.,wind was howling in,went to nee grande.Wind at our backs we waded out and threw twisters and bro caught a15"smally and a 23"saugeye?.Me skunked. Wed morning wind was down so went to nee noshe and b-boated from 6 till 9,bro caught 2 13"crappies,me skunk.Went back to nee grande and I finally got a bite-a 15"smally and a 20"saugeye.Bro got a 25"saugeye-5lbs and a 19" saugeye.Left at 1pm,so not too bad for a quick trip..Cant wait to get back I think they will be turning on-the water temp at both lakes was 65-67F

Nice saugeye, I've never caught one before but was with some body at Horseshoe that caught two 14 inchers. I've got no way of getting on the water until it comes up.

Thinking about going this weekend, is there a campground at Nee Noshe?

[SLAYERFISH]

You just camp anywhere you want for free!I usually end up camping at nee gronde because its got the nice beaches and clearer water.There is a private campground at nee gronde on the west side but Ive never stayed there,the rest is free!

Take I-70 to limon,take US 287 to the lakes.Its 176 miles from my house in aurora,about 2 3\4 hrs if you haul ars.The wed. denver post had an blurb about nee noshe-some guy cauhgt like 40 saugs and wallys in 3 ft of water on white twisters.It gets real hot down there and big thunderstorms.Nee gronde is literally full of trees-SNAGS-Nee noshe has a ton less snags.
