Well, all you fishing fanatics, you have to read this article. A new record wiper caught on a fly rod. I live ten minutes from the north marina on this reservoir. Not hard to guess where I'll be whenever I get a chance. When I moved here to Pueblo, I made the decision to live as close to Pueblo Reservoir as I could.

To top this story off, the record walleye for Colorado was caught a few years ago at a lake I fished 4 to 5 times a week, in the burbs of Denver. I lived 1/2 mile from the gate of Standley Lake.........sort of makes me feel like the old "Always a bridesmaid, never a bride" saying fits me.

 

MAAAAN,that was no fish,it was a submarine!And on a fly rod yet,and broke his net and he still landed it.If that had been me it would have,broken my rod,then broken my net,then sank my boat,then kicked my butt while I was trying to swim to shore!I would say lucky guy,but it sounds like he earned it.Too cool!

 

i saw that in the paper a couple days ago, wow what a fish. i have fished in a few walleye tourneys at pueblo and have caught a couple of wipers, but that was a hog. hey rikfish i used to live on the corner 64th and ward and used to fish standley alot as well.
