Does anyone know if there are walleye in estas lake?

If I was to take a guess I would think that estas was too high and too cold for walleyes. But I'm not an expert.

Yes, there are Walleye in Lake Estes. I know of quite a few caught this season. They were stocked in 2002. If you go for them, try by the pipes that go under the road. I know Catfishingking from this site has landed some from below the dam.

thanks for the info.What is the best way to get below the dam?Do you know what bait and presetation is best for walleyes at estas?

I would try some suspending jerk baits fished really slow along rock jetties or the dam.

Did they put in Walleye or Saugeye?

A buddy of mine caught 4 in a row a few years back. he fishes Estes almost daily and hasn't got one since. He usually fishes from the shore in front of the road w/ the parking areas. All the Walleye I saw caught or heard about being caught were like Neal said along the rocks. Oh, and the ones I saw were just off worms. To get below the dam take Mall you'll see where to turn (it's a dirt road). Good Luck.
