Pueblo Reservoir, CO Walleye Fishing: Learning New Waters 5-5-19

Come along with my fishing adventures in Colorado after my move from South Carolina. On this day, lindy rigs and leech was the ticket.

Lol. Welcome to lake Pueblo. The land of 17" walleye. We've been catching plenty of keepers this year though.

[@Justahobbyoutdoors]

Jealous haven't been able to get out due to my wife's illness. Sometime life through curve balls and requires prioritization. Definitely easy catching but sometimes got to move on if there are only 17" eyes in a spot.

What creek were you fishing here? I am heading down to Pueblo soon and would love some pointers.

[@marquezfishing]

Nice video. Do you do any guide services in the Pueblo reservoir area?

[@Justahobbyoutdoors]

No I do this for fun and just take fishing more seriously. I am also know to let random people fish with me as long as I have no commitments to anyone else at the time as continuously fishing alone gets boring and my wife and I have a new born so fishing is tough for her right now

[@marquezfishing]

Justahobbyoutdoors I would love to get to know the area, my wife and I just moved to the Colorado Springs area not too long ago, and if you’re willing let me accompany you that would be great! Fishing alone is boring, tell me about it.

Any areas you would recommend to fish? Rented a boat for 4 days and headed out there with the family next week

[@tinkersmentality8794]

should wet your hands or a damp cloth while handling the fish,, dry hands cause disease to settle under the scales & eventually kills the fish.

[@Justahobbyoutdoors]

never heard of that one but thank you for the tip.

[@chadpalmer3431]

Nice video! How deep were you finding the fish? Thinking of going out there in the upcoming months

[@markc4921]

Hey how have you been? How's the family? I've been waiting on you to do videos in Colorado. I see it didn't take you long to find the fish being just the 2nd time on that lake. That's a pretty lake. What's the size limit? Enjoyed the video!

[@Justahobbyoutdoors]

Mark the family is good and axel is getting big. Been doing home projects all winter trying to get the needed things done. You cant keep any under 18" and can keep one over 21" for a total of 5

[@Jpp-kh1qn]

What bait do you use

[@Justahobbyoutdoors]

I was using leeches in this video. I usually state this towards the beginning of the videos after the intro.

[@Jpp-kh1qn]

@@Justahobbyoutdoors thanks that's nice to know because I am going fishing there in like a week or two

[@Justahobbyoutdoors]

Yeah leeches will work all summer and fall.
