These lake trout were caught by Alice Stanley and Maynard Crandell at Blue Mesa Reservoir in 2004.

I can't fish worth a darn. I think the fish smell me coming.  That's why I usually only fish once a year, on Free Fishing Weekend. Colorado Parks and Wildlife is inviting fishermen of all ages to participate in its annual Free Fishing Weekend, June 1st & 2nd.  

Each year, the first weekend in June is designated as the only two-day period that you are not required to have a fishing license in Colorado. For the rest of the year a fishing license is required for anyone 16 years and older.

While fishing licenses are not required during free fishing weekend, all other regulations remain in effect. Consult the 2013 Colorado Fishing brochure for specific regulations and restrictions for the waters where you will be fishing.
