April 26, 2024

The Montgomery Reservoir fishing area, located in Colorado, offers anglers a variety of fish species to catch, including rainbow, cutthroat, and brown trout. Nearby activities include hiking, camping, and off-roading. Fishing tips include using small lures and flies and fishing near the inlet or outlet. The best time to visit is during the summer months when temperatures average around 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit. However, early fall can also be a great time for fishing as the trout become more active.
