Awfully quiet...Let's hear some reports ...or at least some lies!

It's been awfully quiet on the forum. It's time for some reports. I haven't fished in Colorado since Memorial Day. However, that is changing Thursday when we head to Spinney. I'll let you know how we come out.

Lucky7, You should do well at Spinney this is what I consider the best three weeks of the year, until the second week of July. Where were you fishing at the park? Thats one place I've never been but I have fished the Gallaten and the Bighorn rivers in MT.

We spent 3 really soggy days at Turquoise Lake.First it rained, then it hailed,rain, hail, rain, rain. Other than getting the boat swamped on the shore, we did manage to catch quite a few macks- none of any size though. The biggest was 19", but they were plenty big enough for my 9 & 5 year old grandsons. They thought that the fish were monsters.

Same story for me the last two outings at Granby. Rain, hail, rain, lightning, hail, rain, wind. It was also nice enough to wear shorts in between bouts with mother nature. We also caught lots of macs, but nothing over 20". We did get into the Kokanee's a bit and a couple were a few pounds. Love the way those kokanne's fight!

I've heard that the Kokes are starting to come back at Granby. Any truth to that. It used to be great Kokanee fishing, before the smart guys at DOW put in the mysis shrimp. If they're going to try an experiment like that, why don't they just try one lake to see if it works, instead of several (Granby, Dillon, Reudi, Taylor, et al)to see what happens. Dillon used to be real good Kokanee and brown trout fishing 'til the mysis hit.

Went to Boyd on 7-1. Nice fishing in the am, but the lake had a million flying ants on the water, so when it came to catching, it wasn't very good. I caught 3 very small white bass and my son caught 4 small wallys.
Then the jet skis & rain came and it all went down hill from there. But at least I wasn't working.

Went to Taylor Res. Monday Jul 12-Thurs. the 15th. Fished Willow Creek inlet and Taylor inlet. Kids caught about 20 stockers and I caught about 20.. a few in the 2-3 pound range on a Yellow and balck wooly worm.
