Guide To Fishing At Grand Lake

What to fish for...

Fishing for rainbow, brown, lake, cutthroat and brook trout, plus kokanee salmon at Grand Lake in Colorado.

With over 500 surface acre feet and 4 1/2 miles of shoreline, Grand Lake is the largest natural lake in CO. It is wrapped on the north and east by the town of Grand Lake, in north-central CO. Fishing enthusiasts can fish for trout and salmon, from the shore, from a boat or go ice fishing in winter once the ice is safe.

The surrounding area offers a wide variety of lodging, dining, shopping and services. A marina plus a couple boat launch ramps serve the boating public during Spring through early Fall. Several area campgrounds are just minutes from the lake.
