Most folks think of remote areas of Colorado’s Plains or High Country but truth be known there are many urban fishing waters available, especially along the Front Range …
One of the finest Front Range wiper waters is located on the outskirts of Longmont, Union Reservoir … In addition to wipers, the reservoir is home to numerous fish species including bass, trout, panfish, catfish and walleyes …
The facility is operated by the City of Longmont providing a fish cleaning station as well as handicapped fishing pier along with limited camping, swimming and picnicking facilities.
Here is a great little video showing the results of several Union Reservoir fishing trips back in 2009 …
The next time you find yourself along the Front Range northwest of Denver and are looking for a new fishing hole, be sure and check Union Reservoir out for some phenomenal wiper action!
