Oats-
I was up at Granby with The Angler and he talked to a couple of guys at the ramp who claimed to have taken a 26 lb. fish last Thursday. I had seen those guys up in Columbine Bay for a short time Friday morning then they left and I next saw them out trolling the main lake. I think they told The Angler they took their big fish trolling. If it's true, it's the biggest fish I've heard of coming from Granby in years. Guess I'm a little skeptical.
As far as the Columbine closure, with the water so low, that bay is not very wide anywhere. We caught macks in 16' of water within 20' of the bank and that was waaaay up Columbine where water depth was only about 18' in the middle. Why close it though? Why not just make it catch & release for the kokanee?
