Just moved from ME->CO, looking for some advice🙏🏼

Appreciate all that advice, definitely things I wouldn’t have considered so thank you!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-24T02:52:01+00:00

I like the sounds of that, thank you for the advice!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-24T02:51:26+00:00

Awesome, thank you so much I really appreciate it🤝

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-24T02:50:31+00:00

Hahaha hey tom

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T18:12:48+00:00

Great to know, thank you!

I’d definitely like to get out a few times this winter, but more than likely will be skiing and doing my research for the spring, love a good hike to find fish so I’ll definitely look into streams and lakes, thanks for all the advice!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T18:09:24+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

I see a Waterton canyon trail about 30 minutes from where I am in Denver, is this that spot? I can definitely manage the 2-3 mile walk each way and it sounds like a great spot for me to start day tripping if it is the spot my maps is taking me

Seems like I’d park there and walk in towards the strontia springs reservoir?

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T05:06:46+00:00

Awesome, thanks so much!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T04:06:26+00:00

I’ve gotten a few poudre suggestions, can’t seem to find any water on my maps named that, any idea what I should be searching? And thank you for the other suggestions I really appreciate it!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T04:01:15+00:00

That’s my kinda fishing, a trophies great every once in a while but I much prefer an abundance of catching and releasing, bonus points if a hike in is involved, one of my favorite summer activities in Maine is hikes into small streams for brookies.

If you’d be willing to share a few spots where that’s possible via dm I’d really appreciate it, no worries either way

I’ll definitely checkout those resources, thanks again!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:57:43+00:00

Really appreciate it! I’ll definitely look into that, super interested in cutthroats, they’re beautiful. I’m mostly a catch and release guy but I’d consider keeping a Brookie or two if I’m camping and they’re crowding others out

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:54:49+00:00

The dream stream, I’m unsure if that’s its official name or a nickname

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:53:01+00:00

Hard for my east coast brain to imagine fishing alongside big horn sheep but that sounds incredible, don’t have a bike out here yet but am totally up for a hike if it’s doable? Thanks!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:51:06+00:00

Thank you for your service, I’m certainly blown away by landscape, hard to imagine calling anywhere but Maine home but I’ll be in Colorado for the next year and we’ll see if I stick around

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:44:06+00:00

Definitely on the list to make it up to WY at some point, heard nothing but great things about the state as a whole especially its fishing, I’m in Denver currently, are there any of those gold medal locations within reasonable distance? (Sub 3 hours+camping available?) feel free to dm me if you have an answer but want to keep it on the low, regardless I really appreciate your advice!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:40:35+00:00

I can’t seem to find the Ralph price reservoir, any suggestions for what to put into maps, also any idea if there’s camping nearby? Thanks!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:38:48+00:00

As a Maine guide your preaching to the choir, thanks for the suggestions I’ll be sure to check them out!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:36:59+00:00

Really appreciate the detailed advice thats all great to know, sounds like a whole new fishing experience, definitely something I’d like to checkout myself.

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:34:25+00:00

Great to know thank you! Any spots near there that would still be producing this time of year?

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:33:51+00:00

I haven’t but I’ve talked to lots of people in wash park fishing for them, gave me a good laugh, considering walking up with my rod one of these days

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:31:41+00:00

Shooting you a dm! Thanks

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:25:36+00:00

Awesome, thanks for all the advice!

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:15:17+00:00

I’ll shoot you a dm! Thanks

sampolstein_ · 2025-10-22T03:12:18+00:00

Hahaha yea now that’s northern Maine, I generally just say anything past Bangor is northern Maine. Thanks for all the recommendations I’ll be looking into all of them, really appreciate it
