Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 12:38 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

New Moon is generally a very productive time for fishing. Dark nights mean that many predators feed more actively during daylight hours. The combined gravity of sun and moon during New Moon days has a stronger effect on all water bodies, leads to increased food availabilty and hence better fishing.
  • Distance to earth:
    382,288 km
    Proximity:
    55 %
We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.

Fishing Overview Pueblo

Pueblo, Colorado fishing is anchored by the famous Pueblo Reservoir on the Arkansas River, with additional action in the tailwater below the dam, the river through town, and smaller ponds scattered around the city. The semi-desert climate keeps water open longer than many Colorado destinations, so anglers can chase walleye, bass, catfish, wiper, and trout almost all year.

Seasonal patterns at Pueblo Reservoir drive most fishing success. Early spring is prime time for walleye and walleye–sauger hybrids as they move shallow to spawn along riprap, dam faces, and rocky points. Night fishing with crankbaits, jerkbaits, and jig-and-minnow combos shines then. As water warms into late spring and early summer, smallmouth bass and largemouth bass become active on rocky shorelines, flooded brush, and main-lake points, while wiper and white bass start roaming open water chasing shad. Summer brings strong catfish action after dark on flats and along channel breaks, with cut bait and stink baits producing channel cats and the chance at larger flatheads.

Fall is one of the most consistent times on Pueblo. Cooling water pushes baitfish into coves and creek arms, and predator species follow. Walleye slide back onto structure during low light; bass feed aggressively on rock and wood; wiper school up and chase bait to the surface. Casting lipless crankbaits, swimbaits, and blade baits around bait balls is a reliable strategy. Winter anglers target deeper structure and channel edges, vertically jigging spoons or soft plastics for walleye and blade baits for schooling fish when the lake remains ice-free.

Habitat and locations are diverse for a western reservoir. Focus on:

  • Rocky shorelines and points: Key for walleye and smallmouth, especially the dam riprap, submerged roadbeds, and gravel points.
  • Flooded brush and coves: Hold largemouth bass, crappie, and sunfish once water rises in spring.
  • Main-lake humps and channel swings: Classic summer and winter holding areas for walleye, wiper, and catfish.
  • Tailwater below Pueblo Dam: A productive stretch of the Arkansas River for rainbow and brown trout, especially around deeper runs, seams, and pocket water.

Techniques should match both species and season. For walleye, jig-and-plastic combos, live-bait rigs, and bottom bouncers with crawler harnesses are standard, trolled or drifted along breaklines in 10–30 feet. At night, casting shallow crankbaits parallel to shore catches big fish. Bass anglers do well with tube jigs, Ned rigs, and drop-shots over rock for smallmouth, and Texas-rigged soft plastics, jigs, and spinnerbaits around brush for largemouth.

Wiper fishing around Pueblo often means covering water. Watch electronics and surface activity; when schools push bait to the top, run-and-gun to breaking fish and cast spoons, soft jerkbaits, or small swimbaits. If they’re deeper, vertically jigging spoons and blade baits over bait schools is effective. For catfish, target evening and night on shallow flats with cut shad, chicken liver, or prepared baits, setting multiple rods along depth transitions.

In-town, the Arkansas River through Pueblo offers additional trout and warmwater opportunities. Focus on deeper pools, current seams, and undercut banks, using small spinners, inline spoons, or nymph rigs for trout and downsized jigs or bait rigs for mixed-species action. Matching your approach to Pueblo’s distinct seasonal movements and structure will significantly increase catch rates across this productive southern Colorado fishery.
