    Lake Granby Fishery Management Report Jon Ewert, Aquatic Biologist, Colorado Parks and Wildlife February 2019 Introduction Lake Granby, approximately 7,250 surface acres when full, is one of the largest coldwater reservoirs in the state. It is the main storage reservoir in the west slope portion of the Colorado-Big Thompson Project which supplies water to the northern Front Range through the Adams Tunnel at Grand Lake. It is a focal point of the Grand County tour- ism economy and offers many amenities. Recreational access is managed by the U.S. Forest Service as part of the Arapaho National Recreation Area. The recreational fishery of Granby is dominated by lake trout (aka mackinaw) and hosts the highest density of the species that has been documented in Colorado. Kokan- ee salmon have been stocked in Granby since 1951 to pro- vide recreational opportunity, a prey base to produce tro- phy lake trout, and spawning adults are captured annually to provide eggs for restocking. Rainbow trout of various sizes are also stocked and there is a moderate density of self-sustaining brown trout. Suckers and mottled sculpin Figure 1. Lake Granby are also present. Lake Granby also contains a dense population of mysis separate from the aggregate bag limit of other species. shrimp, which are an excellent prey source for smaller Due to reasons described above, the lake trout fishery in (<24”) lake trout.
