Breckenridge, Colorado in late August

[Dr. Fish]

Looks like I'm headed to Breckenridge, Colorado for some meetings the last week in August. It has been a VERY long time since I was out there fishing and was hoping that some locals could provide some info on what the local fishery has to offer.

Anything you can provide would be most appreciated posted here or sent to me at jeff@mustad-usa.com. I tread lightly and treat all fish with TLC : )
. . . oh and can keep a good secret : )

Behind the Outlet Malls just below Dillon reservoir and I-70 in Silverthorne (blue River)there is the catch and release section for lunker size fish. Highly technical water.
Below Green mountain reservorior is some more tailwater fishing.
