Good to see you're still around.
I haven't fished the Sand Creek Ponds for a few years but I'll pass along what little information I know. I've done best at ponds #1 & #3 and Blue Creek Reseroir. Keep in mind this was a few years go. As far as I know any of the ponds could be good. Look for fish feeding on surface. These ponds are one of those still waters you can catch fish on dry flies on a regular basis. I fished them on a cloudy/rainy day one time and found many fish working the surface. Mostly planted fish but there are a few wild fish and carry overs. The F&G also limit access to certain areas to protect nesting swans. I'm not sure if nesting swans have closed off any areas this year but keep an eye open for signs that state where access is not allowed. As you may already know the F&G planted "banana trout" in these ponds to see how successfull over winter survival was.
Good luck.
