Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
ELEVEN MILE STATE PARK IS LOCATED IN THE SOUTH PARK NATIONAL HERITAGE AREA
HOURS: Friday - Monday 8:00AM - 4:00PM Beginning May 1 Monday - Sunday.
UPDATE:: 04.24.20 ELEVEN MILE WILL OPEN TO BOATING ON APRIL 30. SPINNEY MOUNTAIN STATE PARK OPENS APRIL 29. HIP HIP HURRAY1
CPW, the Marina and Covid-19: The Visitor Center and all campgrounds/playgrounds are closed through at least April 27. The Stay at Home Order is not being lifted. It is being modified. As of this writing details are still being developed and released. The Park remains open for hiking and fishing access. We remain open on hours posted above. As a licensed CO Retail Food Establishment we follow all mandated guidelines and then some. Our store is big enough for effective social distancing.
PARK COUNTY RESTRICTIONS: Go to Park County website for details related to Covid-19 restrictions effective through date of State Order.
RESERVATIONS BEING ACCEPTED: We are taking reservations for boating and guided trips this Summer. 100% money back guarantee on deposit with no cancellation fee if related to Covid-19 restrictions. We will follow all appropriate guidelines in sanitizing boats in between each rental.
CURRENT CONDITIONS: Eleven Mile and Spinney are 100% ice free. Under normal circumstances they would be open for boating. From what we hear they are trying to get both lakes open as fast as possible after April 27. Staffing issues are some of the problem and everything is related to Covid-19. As far as the campgrounds look to early May opening anytime after May 1, but there is nothing official yet.
FISHING/HUNTING LICENSE: Contrary to early Corona rumors and social media mania no hunting or fishing regulations or seasons have been suspended. Your essential fishing addiction still requires a legally mandated essential license in your possession. All annual CPW licenses expired on MARCH 31.. We are a CPW licensed dealer for all hunting and fishing licensees. Don’t think for one minute you can use the current situation as an excuse to not have a license. Plus they need the money for the fish. CPW budget is primarily fee supported.. We do and are currently selling all CPW licenses. You can purchase online and we can print it out. We do not sell any State Park Passes or boating registrations. The Park office remains closed. If you don’t have a Park Pass bring $9.00 in cash for self service pass. Visit CPW website for any Covid-19 information related to licensing.

The maps have GPS coordinates on them so you just can't miss. We want you to be successful here at the Mile. Get a map we will MARK IT UP with the hot spots
TROUT:: GOOD: If you put in the time between weather fronts blowing in and out big fish can be caught. Every angler has his favorite go to angle for Spring Trophy fish. Almost all baits of one variety or another have their moment in Spring. Popular methods include working two rods with one rod bait or fly and bubble and one rod jig or lure. Or one fly rod and float tube. Action has been sporadic. Look to early and mid morning mid afternoon and sundown. Be prepared for wind and it is your friend when it comes to catching. Of course no one wants it strong but dead stick calm isn’t called dead stick for nothing.
KOKANEE SALMON: NO REPORT
NORTHERN PIKE: NO REPORT Try Chartreuse Power Bait
