I am sure you can catch some little 8-10 inch slimers there. But the place is a zoo now all the time.
When I first started fishing here over 20 years ago now, Dillon was the number on big trout lake in COLorado. Dave Cooks used to have a weekly big trout contest during the summer and the top three fish every week were usually from Dillon. It usually took 10 lbs or better to win. The biggest fish I ever had on was at Dillon. It was an epic battle that lasted about 30 seconds. It was a huge bow that came about four feet out of the water and snapped my line like it was nothing!
Then they put Myisis Shrimp in there and the destroyed the whole food chain. Your best shot at a nice fish there is in November when the Browns that are left, run up the river to spawn. An That run is nothing like it used o be[
