Want to catch some good eating walleyes?

Nice video, congrats on your success and yum on the fish.

Great video! Love seeing the food chain.

So if you guys are curious they were biting every time we dropped the bait down. If you hang the leech right below the bait ball you'll get a hit every single time. They were obviously not all keepers but I would say every 1 out of 7 or so fish were legal size. It wasn't on the video but we caught some huge trout in the 22 - 24 inch range as well with the leeches.

Me like!
Tell me a bit more about the green lights . . . .I found some on Amazon for 20$ . . .

How much does a slip cost to rent for a night? Is that the north marina?
Can I call ahead to rent the slip?
Phone number?

Believe that is the south shore marina and they charge 45 per night.

Thanks Trailerman . . . .this might be a cure for the dog days of summer.

Never tried that at Pueblo. I've got a friend that rigged LED lights from Tractor Supply all around his boat... angled down to the water. He just fips one switch and lights up the world. Works great. I have the floating "crappie lights" on my boat, They work good but they can hog some battery.

What brand lights are you using/how many lumens do they put out?

I got 2 coming

Just got the lights I ordered . . . .WOW!!!!!! BRIGHT!!!!!!!!
Test them out at Pueblo Friday night.

Just don't consume if they look like this.

Is that the sandy flesh disease? I have not actually seen it yet but thats kinda freaky. Haven’t heard of it in the Denver metro yet

Hey guys! Sorry was out of town for a bit. Yes, it's south shore marina and yes it's $46 per night. I think the leeches may be out of season already but in the past crawlers have worked around this time. So far none of the 18 - 22 inch walleyes have sandy flesh disease but I did fillet one from Nebraska that had it.

Welcome back Big D . . .I'm headed down to Pueblo tonight to try my luck . . .my lights came in from Amazon and I reserved a slip at the South Shore marina . . .I got a cooler full of crawlers and plenty of finger food/snacks ,ect.
will report when I'm back.
The lights I ordered from Amazon came in and I tested them out . . .guess what? The lights are polarety smart . . .I got the clamps on the wrong posts of the battery and the light didn't turn on . . .I reversed the polarity and they worked just fine.

Good luck HP! I know you'll kill it out there.

The North shore marina area has a lot more wipers. I'd bet you chances would be better on the north side if wipers are what your after.

I've fished both marinas at night and from my experience I've caught about the same amount of wipers on both side. I do like the north shore cause the rules are more laxed but the south shore is much cleaner and quieter.

Eagerly awaiting the report from HP!

Also, can you tell if the fish has sandy flesh disease from the outside? Or only after you filet it?

We got there too late to experance the shad/light thing and only caught one eye and 4 stocker trout.We did have a school of Shad(all over 12 in) come to one light for most of the night.

Gurnman, as I understand it you can only tell after I you filet the fish. It is not a problem at Pueblo as only one case has been identified that I am aware of. I’ve cleaned hundreds of walleye from Pueblo and have never seen any signs of the sandy flesh.

Thx SGM
