ANGLERS ASKED FOR INPUT ON FISHING REGULATIONS
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The Colorado Division of Wildlife invites local anglers to participate in “Angler Roundtable” meetings throughout southeastern Colorado.
The DOW re-evaluates state fishing regulations every five years. These public forums give anglers a chance to provide input to the fishing regulations process and hear the latest information affecting their favorite fishing waters.
“We want to hear from anglers during this process,” said Doug Krieger, senior aquatic biologist for the SE Region. “Colorado’s anglers represent a diverse group who enjoy fishing for everything from catfish to trout. This is a great opportunity for anglers to provide input regarding allowable methods of take, size requirements, and bag limits.”
DOW biologists regularly evaluate fishery management and collect data from state waters. They conduct fish sampling, creel census and angler satisfaction surveys, research studies, review fish stocking strategies, and examine water quality and water quantity. That information will be considered in the decision-making process for setting the new regulations for the five-year period (2011-2015).
Anglers are encouraged to bring suggestions about how DOW can improve the fishing at their favorite lakes and streams.
The forums are in the following locations:
Leadville: April 13, National Mining Museum, 120 W. 9th Street, 6:30 p.m.
Colorado Springs: April 20, Division of Wildlife, 4255 Sinton Rd., 6:30 p.m.
LaJunta: April 21, Thyme Square Soup & Salad, 302 Colorado Ave., 7 p.m.
