Fishing Guides

​​Are you planning a fishing excursion at Spinney Mountain Reservoir or along that section of the South Platte River that is known as the “Dream Stream”? Consider the use of a fishing guide during your trip. Especially if you are new to the sport or area.

Fishing guides can often point you to that sweet spot that the fish love to hang out in. They are knowledgeable about what the fish will be biting on during specific times of the year, what time of the day will produce the most action and at what depths they might be found at. They can also help to refine your casting techniques and give you tips on flies and lures to try out.

For additional information, see the Spinney Mountain Reservoir fishing or boating pages. Information concerning zebra mussels and other aquatic invasive species can be found on these pages as well.

The 11 Mile Marina is available to those anglers and boaters looking for either a boat rental or guided fishing trip on either reservoir. Boat rentals and guided trips at Spinney are typically limited to the off-season months only (April, May, September & October). The marina may be contacted at (719) 748-0317.

Fishing guides and outfitters who use the park for commercially guided fishing or recreation activities are required to purchase a special-use permit each year. Fishing guides may contact the park office for more details at (719) 748-3401.
