Does this page show the calendar anymore?
The solunar calendar has been fixed. There was an update a little while back that messed it up. Thanks for the heads up and it should be working again. GL!
Thanks for providing this service.
Very nice! The best fishing/hunting solunar calendar , now I can go fishing in peace
I have fished heavily at Chatfield lake since retiring some 32 years ago. Trout fishing has declined precipitously from 12 to 4 trout per day due to the whirling disease spread, but remains a sporting pleasure
Your fishing time tables are a great help, given the failure of the Denver Post regularly and adequately publish sam
Glad to hear our time tables are helpful!
Would like to know places I can take my boat out for fishing and camping this year
Why doesn’t this page show the calendar any more?
The best fishing/hunting solunar calendar is back up and running. Sorry about the inconvenience!
Great site.
I visit your web site often for the solunar fishing calendar. For the last week or so, I can’t seem to find it. Could you help, please.
Sorry about it being down. There was a backend database issue that needed to be resolved. It should be back and running now for you!
I am so excited to have found this calendar! I have lived and fished in Colorado for many years now and have never seen this before! I can’t wait to utilize it. Go Good fishing all!
How do you know the fish will be biting? What methods do you use to make these predictions? And is this a general prediction applied to all of Colorado or just the best, most well stocked lakes?
This is built off solunar theory. Find the basics here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solunar_theory
For this report I wrote an algorithm that looks at how the sun and the moon line up with each other. How the rise/set times matchup as well as what the moon cycle is. The best times is when the sun and moon are close to being in sync. Also no moon tends to be better than a full moon.
My take on it may seem a little harsher than others. It’s always a good time to fish. But it is not always a good time to catch (according to Solunar theory). However, we often joke that the fish don’t check the website before they decide if they are hungry. :)
This is specifically geared towards Colorado, though the times will line up if you are anywhere in the same time zone (MST). If you are not, it’s easy to just add or subtract a few hours depending on what side you are on. In the future I hope to add time zones as well as integrate weather into the fishing forecast.
The solunar calendar does not consider how stocked a lake is. If you want to see that check out the Fish Stocking Report. This will display more fish (better fishing) the more recently and frequently a body of water has been stocked.

Thanks for your questions. I hope this helps you catch fish and understand how I come up with these numbers.
Yes, this is great! I also study the Moon for other reasons as there is a biblical calendar that has the beginning of a new month starting with the conjunctive moon, (darkened moon).
