Lake Dillon

Lake Dillon is located in Colorado’s Summit County, one of the highest counties in the country. This lake or in actuality reservoir is located at about 9,000ft and is surrounded by great mountain communities including Breckenridge, Frisco, Silverthorne, and of course Dillon. Due to its popularity and population density you would think makes this a highly pressured fishery but in fact may be underutilized. The reason for this is the other world class waters near by including two different sections of the Blue River, Ten Mile Creek, and the Snake River. Whether you end up on shore or in a boat you will have great angling opportunity for a large variety of salmonids.
