  • Fishing Report
    COLORADO PARKS & WILDLIFE Fishing ReportFishing Regulations Friday March 23rd, 2018 Review News and Information CPW accepts check for $29 million grant from U.S. Department of the Interior Colorado Parks and Wildlife Director Bob Broscheid on Tuesday, March 20, accepted a check for $29 million from the U.S. Department of Interior, declaring the funding “critical to CPW’s efforts for wildlife conservation, research, habitat preservation” as well as for supporting hunting and fishing programs. Invasive mussels knocking on Colorado's door prompts Highline Lake to revise boat ramp rules Beginning April 1, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will lock the boat ramp each evening at Highline Lake State Park, or when Aquatic Nuisance Species inspectors are not available. The new rule is in response to the growing threat posed to Colorado's water by the few boaters suspected of illegally launching their watercraft without the required aquatic nuisance species inspection. Anglers can provide input at two CPW 'State of the Fish" meetings in Summit, Grand counties In continuing efforts to engage the public in constructive conversations, Colorado Parks and Wildlife will hold two 'State of the Fish' gatherings in Summit and Grand County later this month. Agency biologists and managers will be available to answer questions about the current status of local fisheries, and future management plans. Go fish! 2018 fishing licenses are available now, valid beginning April 1 Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers that it's time to get ready for another season of fishing. Coloradans and non-resident visitors can purchase a 2018 annual fishing license now either online, at your local CPW office or at any of our hundreds of authorized sales agents statewide.

    SENATE BILL 21-112 BY SENATOR(S) Garcia and Simpson, Bridges, Buckner, Donovan, Ginal, Hansen, Jaquez Lewis, Moreno, Pettersen, Story, Winter; also REPRESENTATIVE(S) McCluskie and Will, Arndt, Bird, Caraveo, Cutter, Exum, Gray, Herod, Hooton, Jackson, Jodeh, Kipp, Lontine, McCormick, McLachlan, Michaelson Jenet, Mullica, Ricks, Roberts, Snyder, Titone, Weissman, Young. CONCERNING A 2020-21 STATE FISCAL YEAR TRANSFER FROM THE GENERAL FUND TO THE CAPITAL CONSTRUCTION FUND FOR INCREASED ACCESS AT CERTAIN STATE PARKS, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado: SECTION 1. Legislative declaration. (1) The general assembly hereby finds and declares that: (a) The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased state parks usage, against a backdrop of growth in recent years, as Colorado residents seek outdoor and socially distanced activities. State parks usage grew by 2.2 million visitor days from the 2014-15 state fiscal year and a further thirty percent during the spring of 2020. Capital letters or bold & italic numbers indicate new material added to existing law; dashes through words or numbers indicate deletions from existing law and such material is not part of the act. (b) Accelerating the development of Fishers Peak State Park and improving amenities at eleven other state parks will relieve pressure from such high usage and prepare for future demand. SECTION 2. In Colorado Revised Statutes, 24-75-302, amend (2)(kk) and (2)(11); and add (2)(mm) as follows: 24-75-302. Capital construction fund - capital assessment fees - calculation - information technology capital account. (2) The controller shall transfer a sum as specified in this subsection (2) from the general fund to the capital construction fund as money becomes available in the general fund during the fiscal year beginning on July 1 of the fiscal year in which the transfer is made.
