PIC #1: Howard gets first Pike of the year. But he said of course “you should have seen the one that got away”

PIC #2: Pitching the shoreline a the main boat ramp

PIC #3: and another but a bit bigger!

PIC # 4: Certain lures and baits have their moments through out a season as days get longer and the water warms. We have always had successful catching on Rapala’s in the Spring Particularly on the Jointed although others do also produce. Here’s a pic from some in the Balsa series. The jointed ones really kick it.

PIC # 5: Getting ready for the Summer 2025 Season. Come visit our store or shop online for curbside pick up when boating season starts and hit the water without delay.

SEND US YOUR PICS: Catching Memories. See your smiling face on the Weekly Report
TROUT: GOOD: Shoreline action all around the lake. Last week was almost too windy to fish but when conditions cooperated so did the fish. Many different methods and baits are working. Many anglers set a bait rig and pitch another with lure while keeping a sharp eye. If you like catching big fish and who doesn’t now is the time to go. Dress for all conditions. The days have warmed and the wind has been kind. Stop in for latest info.

KOKANEE SALMON: NO REPORT

NORTHERN PIKE: FAIR: A few fish like Howards turning up. He swore he lost a monster. Pearl Pepper tube jig was his lucky bait. As the water warms action should pick up. You don’t need a boat to catch the ones you want. Big fish in shallow water.

SPECIAL NOTE: 11 Mile Marina is located at the North Shore in Eleven Mile State Park, Lake George Colorado. A CPW Park Pass is required on all vehicles entering the Park.  Any fees for Guide/Outfitter/Rental services do not include Park fees, CO fishing license or gratuities.
