Fishing Report
Fishing has been excellent this summer on Baily Pond for stocked trout and green sunfish. We should see the trout fishing slow down some with the extreme heat of summer, but the green sunfish fishing will remain excellent. Bait fishing with salmon eggs under a bobber or powerbait off the bottom remains the most effective methods on the pond. Small spinners are still catching a few fish, but we should see that taper off until the pond cools down. Fly fisherman retrieving small nymphs just under the surface are finding fish early and late in the day.

Pertinent Information
Baily Fishing Pond is a 1-acre pond about 15 ft deep. Water is diverted from Clear Creek, keeping the pond cool and allowing for trout fishing most of the year. There is a fishing pier that is ADA accessible and multiple flat-topped boulders along the shore from which to fish. The typical baits and lures for trout work such as Power Bait, salmon eggs, nightcrawlers, small spinners and spoons, and flies (hare’s ears, prince nymphs, and Sheep Creek specials). The park has porta potties, picnic tables with canopies, barbeque grills, and a nice trail around the pond. Note that the pond may be closed to use if the parking area becomes muddy or the pond freezes over.
