Some of the better lakes I have fished for Wipers are Union, Cherry Creek, Pueblo, Jackson, and North Sterling. The biggest wiper I have caught was just over 10 lbs. at Cherry Creek. One big fish technique I have had success with over the years has been casting the Cherry Creek dam with crankbaits. The key is to cast within inches of the rocks, the closer the better. It seems like the wipers cruise along the dam ambushing prey that darts out from the rocks. I usually only catch one or two a day this way but they are almost always over 5 lbs.
I wrote an article earlier this year about the wiper fishing at Union Reservoir. To read it go to [url "http://www.coloradofisherman.com/union_reservoir.htm"]http://www.coloradofisherman.com/union_reservoir.htm[/url]. If you have any questions don't hesitate to email me or post to this board. I enjoy sharing info with fellow anglers.
