Does anyone know of a quality bait shop around the pueblo reservoir? I saw a few places posted online but they don't open until later in the morning? How do they expect to sell bait? I know the south marina sells Minows but Im coming in through pueblo west to fish turkey creek and I really don't feel like paying 7 dollars to go in to the park just to pick up bait.. any info will be helpful thanks.

If I have to go in to the park for bait I will but I see that that the marina doesn't open until 8 anyway?? I'd like to have a few fish in the cooler by then??

Anglers covey the night before

you're screwed pretty much.. the bait shops just haven't ever succeeded in Pueblo.

I heard they are opening a Sportsman's down there...

If you head to the Springs, Roadrunner Bait is your best bet. Really nice lady...sells minnows, crawlers, and leeches out of her garage. She provides the majority of minnows to the southern front range including those sold by Anglers Covey and the North Marina.

Always get more than you pay for with reasonable...best prices around.

Never known Sportmans to sell minnows.

Great bait for a great price by the dozen or by the thousand.
Welcome back Hobie!!!

HOBIE sighting!!!!


Right on man....

I wouldn't know, I don't use live bait.

I mentioned it because someone above stated that bait shops have historically failed in the area

 

[Fishaddict99]

I appreciate all the info, looks like my only option is to pick up some minnows the night before so I'll head to road runner bait tonight. Hopefully the fish are biting!! Turkey creek on Tuesday and Wednesday, tight lines everyone.

 

[DoctorDooom]

Isn't turkey creek down off of 115? I'm driven there a couple times and always get lost. Spend ten minutes and then say to hell with it andgo to the hollow

Been doing well. Yvette's doing great. Still hiking and biking...even been learning to play the guitar over the past year. Fishing's been great so far this spring. I've hit Pueblo eight times. Caught a personal best walleye..

Byron, the walleye are hot right now. Last Wednesday I caught 35 with 17 over eighteen out of my toon...Went back Thursday on Batman's boat and we caught another eighty five or so...should have had more than a hundred. Get out there if you can.

Damn Hobie good to see you're still around. Hope to run into you in my yak at Pueblo soon.

You can't miss me...Just look for the little toon with the gas and electric motor..

Do you still have your floatcat? If you do and you'd like to sell it, I may have a buyer.

 

[Ninja]

LOL-I just bought it last fall. After looking for one for over 3 years I have zero ambition to sell it. Especially after seeing some of the cool light weight add ons you came up with for yours. I intend on using it on those that don't allow any kind of motor mostly. But, want to have a trolling motor set-up for when I don't want to haul the kayak trailer around.

Shoot me a PM. We'll have to meet up and chase some kittys.

 

[Fishaddict99]

Just got back from pueblo thanks for pointing me to road runner bait they were very nice. Fishing is pretty good, ended with 2 walleye, 8 crappie, 1 wiper, and I threw back 15 bass. Get out their when you can!

 

[Fishaddict99]

Not a bad days fishing, caught my pb crappie at 15 3/4 inches, will be eating good.

Unless you want lots of company in your spot, you should be careful showing background structures in your pics... good catch.
