Why Ice Fishing for Trout?
Colorado’s cold-water reservoirs and lakes yield healthy trout action through the ice. With the right location and guide, you can expect solid chances at 10-20+ trout on a trip (as seen in similar Colorado operations).
Add to that the serenity of the winter wilderness, the sense of accomplishment, and the unique adventure it’s a perfect outdoor experience.
