Head for the hills
This week saw a marked improvement for fishing in mountain reservoirs, such as Green Mountain, Spinney, Elevenmile, Granby and Antero. All are doing well for trout, primarily rainbows. Look for most of the higher mountain waters to open over the next couple of weeks. Those willing to fish after sunset have been picking up some nice walleyes on Denver-area waters. Pueblo continues to fish well for myriad species. Need to get the kids out? Consider hitting the neighborhood ponds for some sunfish, as they continue to report good action. Floats and worms will do the trick. David Coulson,
