Lakes
Grand Lake/Shadow Mountain- Look for lakers in Grand Lake at 30 to 50 feet. Most active fish being found suspended near large drop-offs/humps. Jig with white/tan glitter tube jigs tipped with sucker meat. Trolling deep for lakers with nightcrawlers and spoons has also been producing fish. Shadow mountain has fished well trolling/casting shallow diving crankbaits devils with the colder water temperature. fishing from shore with pink power bait and Rooster Tails has been productive.
Lake Granby- Jig in about 40 foot with pink or purple tube jigs, troll needlefish and flatfish around 30 feet for lakers, and Rapalas around 5-20 feet for browns and rainbows. from shore use gold kastmaster lures. Worm and sucker meat on the bottom are also producing.
Williams Fork Reservoir- Jig big white tube jigs in 30 to 60 of water off the points. Rainbow Rapalas trolled in about 30 to 50 feet of water works well. from shore use worms, pink power bait, and cast Countdown Rapalas.
