Colorado Fish Stocking Report 2015Here at CampOutColorado.com, we want to provide you with as many tools as we can to make your camping experience better.  Use this Colorado fish stocking report as a guide. Find out what lakes have been freshly stocked with fish in Colorado. This may help you decide between Colorado’s many wonderful lakes and rivers. To find out the best fishing time make sure to check Camp Out Colorado’s solunar calendar!

One of my favorite things to do when I’m camping and enjoying the great outdoors is fishing. There’s nothing quite like some fresh fish when you are out camping. A nice, hot, healthy meal is the perfect thing when camping. This fish stocking report can help you find the recently stocked fish in the area where you will be camping.

Even if you do not like to eat fish when you are camping, the sport of fishing is a lot of fun. Catch and release fishing is something the entire family can enjoy. Whether you are fishing from a boat, on shore, or working your way down a river, it’s a great way to enjoy what nature has to offer.

Increase your chances of catching fish by checking the Colorado fish stocking report. Each section of the fish stocking report shows an area that was stocked within a week from the date of the report. Whether you are out camping or you live by one of these locations, you can increase your luck if you fish recently stocked lakes and streams.

In the table below you will find a list of the lakes and other bodies of water in Colorado that were stocked with fish in the last week from the date above. The time of year and the temperatures of each region will determine if these areas will be stocked or not. The type of fish that are stocked will also vary depending on the location and the temperature of the water. Here is a short list of the fish that are most commonly stocked in Colorado:

  • Rainbow Trout – Rainbows can be found in most mountain lakes and streams, as well as many plains reservoirs.
  • Saugeye – This hybrid of walleye and sauger has been stocked into reservoirs throughout the eastern plains of Colorado since the 1980s.
  • Channel Catfish – Channel cats are native to eastern Colorado and have been stocked in warmer rivers and reservoirs throughout the state.
  • Smallmouth Bass – Introduced to Colorado in 1951, smallmouth have been stocked in warm- and cool-water reservoirs and lakes in many parts of the state.

Links to Colorado’s Fishing Atlas

Another great tool besides this fish stocking report that we like to use here at CampOutColorado.com for fishing when we are camping is the interactive Fishing Atlas. The Fishing Atlas provides a host of information, including driving directions, stocking details, and locations of the nearest license retailer.

To use this resource, click on the provided link under “Body of Water”, and the atlas will open in a separate window. Once the atlas is open, you can zoom in or out, or click on the location to display detailed information. Feel free to play around with the options on the far left of the atlas for other types of information and displays.

Best Fishing Times Calendar

Another great fishing tool on CampOutColorado.com is the Best Time to Go Fishing Calendar. The Best Time to Go Fishing Calendar is a dynamic page that looks up the best times to fish for the day. It also gives you the next 30 days of expected best fishing times as well. Use these tools together to plan and enjoy the most of your fishing trips!

The best of luck to all those Colorado campers heading out there to fish. Remember, catch and release is the way to go! Make sure you take a camera, a ruler, and a scale with you so you can document your catch then release it back into the water as soon as possible. This is the only way to preserve the waters for others that we have all come to love when we are camping and enjoying the great outdoors.
