Lake Pueblo Reservoir
Colorado
Please take NOTE there is no fire burning allowed due to the
extreme danger of FIRE
Pueblo is a great
adventure spot for those of you who love to boat, fish, and camp. If you have a tent, travel trailer, or RV this
is the spot for you. Pueblo is one of
the most popular state parks in Colorado. There are over 4,500 acres of surface
water at Lake Pueblo.
Fishing off shore is
just not very good unless you are using a bobber because of the amount of trees
and rocks close to the shore line. If
you are lucky enough to have a boat or can book a guide I would because fishing
is amazing here. We caught over 25
walleye that were less than 18” so we could not keep them but they sure were
fun to catch. Pueblo has a rule of over
18” for walleye or you could catch a severe fine.
We used Larry Walker
for a fishing guide for the day and can I say he was AMAZING! Larry was on time and had the boat in the
water before we got there. He provided
drinks we just had to bring lunch. He
has a very nice comfortable boat…like the Lambo of boats. He was very helpful and always helped us once
we got each fish up to the boat. I
usually won’t give kudos unless it is due but he is best guide that we have
ever used. Can’t say enough good things
about this guy!
Camping is available and
I recommend that you book in advance they offer over 400 sites
Spots by the lake are
hard to come by and are sold out on the weekends due to the amount of visitors. The wind can get high up here and the heat is
extreme at times so make sure you have plenty of sunscreen and cover ups….stay
hydrated or you will suffer. I took some
photos of camping spots at Pueblo and as you can see there are hardly any shade
trees so again beware.
The bathroom facilities
are super clean and not what I expected at all.
They have flush toilets and free showers just a hop skip and jump away
from each site. They only offer electric
only sites so fill up with water on your way in if you have an RV or travel
trailer.
