Discover the best areas for ice fishing in Estes Park today!
Sprague Lake
Sprague Lake is a 13-acre lake with breathtaking panoramic views of the Continental Divide in the distance. During the winter, the glassy waters freeze over and become a terrific spot for ice fishing. Brook Trout, Brown Trout, and Rainbow Trout reside in these waters!
Lake of Glass
Lake of Glass is one of Rocky Mountain National Park’s biggest hubs for fishing! It’s accessible through the Glacier Gorge Trailhead, and Brook trout and greenback cutthroats populate this area. The journey up to this body of water can be challenging but worth it for the tremendous number of fish to catch and the beautiful views of Timberline Falls.
Sky Pond
Sky Pond is the next-door neighbor to Lake of Glass! Travel a little further along Glacier Gorge Trailhead, and you’ll find the high-elevation body of water. You’re likely to catch brookies under the ice, all surrounded by the Sharks Tooth rock formations.
Lake Haiyaha
If you’re looking for easier access to a terrific ice fishing spot, we recommend taking on Bear Lake Trailhead to Lake Haiyaha. Cutthroat trout are typically caught in this area, and you’ll be fishing with Hallett Peak right above you!
