: St. Vrain State Park - Sandpiper, Mallard and Coot ponds received a healthy stock within the last week. Worms, power bait, and red salmon eggs have been producing good numbers of stock-size trout (8-12 inches). Lucky Tip: Sandpiper pond also received brood-size (18-plus inch) trout this past week. Panfish are still being caught on Mallard and Redtail Ponds with red/orange jigs and salmon eggs bringing the most success. Bass are starting to move between the shallows and the deep in each of the ponds, and we've seen a few starting to clear for beds. Imitation crawfish and other small Texas-rigged plastics seem to produce good numbers (remember: Bald Eagle pond is fishable with flies and lures only, plastics must be at least 1 1/2" in length and all bass must be returned to the water immediately.) There have been sightings of saugeye, ranging between 10-12" at Coot Pond and there has yet to be a report of a catfish being caught. Please remember to carry your fishing license while fishing and check the 2013 Colorado Fishing brochure for limits. Reported by: Sportsman's Warehouse |
